Mexico And Texas 1821 1835 PDF Download

Excerpt from The United States and Mexico, 1835-1837 While there is no evidence that the anglo-american colonists settled Texas with the intention of tearing it from Mexico and annexing it to the United States, they formed by their immigra tion no real ties with Mexico and broke none with the United States. A perennial state of revolution compelled the govern ment to leave them largely to their own devices in local affairs, and an unwise suspension of the tariff in their favor encouraged trade with the United States instead of with Mexico. Vessels rarely sailed between Texan and Mexican ports, though both had regular connections with New Orleans. It 13 not surprising, / therefore, that the Texans turned to the people of the United/ States for aid at the beginning of their contest with Mexico.
