John Belohlavek offers an engaging study of women in the Mexican-American War of 1846-48. His goal is “to explore and recognize the courage, spirit, and influence of women heralded and unheralded” (2). The book’s core is a series of narratives detailing the activities of individual women. He introduces women whose collective participation in the war does not typically receive as much attention as do some. Gertrude Barceló (known as doña Tules), Susan Magoffin, and Jane Storm Cazneau are some of the many examples provided as he blends broader historical analysis with biographical vignettes of specific women.
