The Mormon Battalion: Its History And Achievements is a book written by B. H. Roberts that provides a comprehensive account of the Mormon Battalion, a group of Latter-day Saint men who volunteered to fight in the Mexican-American War in 1846-1847. The book details the formation of the battalion, its journey from Council Bluffs, Iowa to San Diego, California, and its participation in various battles and skirmishes along the way. Roberts also delves into the personal experiences of the battalion members, including their struggles with illness, hunger, and harsh weather conditions. The book highlights the battalion's contributions to the war effort, including its role in the capture of Tucson, Arizona and the establishment of a new southern route to California. In addition to recounting the battalion's military achievements, Roberts also examines the social and cultural context of the time period, discussing issues such as the relationship between the United States and Mexico, the role of religion in the lives of the battalion members, and the impact of the Mexican-American War on the western expansion of the United States. Overall, The Mormon Battalion: Its History And Achievements offers a detailed and informative account of an important chapter in American and Mormon history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
