This is Christopher D Dishman's first military history book. Chris visited the city of Monterrey, Mexico for work and being interested in military history, began reading about the battle. He learned that an amazing war story occurred in the city, yet no author had dedicated a book to it.
Chris returned to Monterrey several times, consulted with historians based in the city, and spent countless hours in the US National Archives and the Library of Congress studying journals, diaries, maps and lithographs. He consulted with many experts on the subject and spent hours on Ebay and auction sites purchasing the original personal letters of the soldiers, getting their experiences in their own words. He first wrote a magazine article on the battle and then embarked on the book.
Chris created a neat website that discusses the book and the battle. Check it out at https://www.battleofmonterrey.com.
Besides Christopher's passion for military history he has published numerous articles on Homeland Security, terrorism and crime. Chris resides with his family in Dallas, Texas.
