EDITORS COMMENTS
September 21, 1846: The Battle of Monterey - A Turning Point in the Mexican-American War In this historic print from the Battle of Monterey, we witness the brave Americans, led by General John D. Worth, storming Independence Hill. The Obispado, or Bishops Palace, looms in the background, a symbol of Mexican power that the Americans sought to dominate. The Battle of Monterey, fought on September 21, 1846, was a pivotal moment in the Mexican-American War. The Americans, determined to secure California and the southwestern United States, had been making their way towards Monterey, the capital of Alta California. The Mexican forces, under General José de Reyes Fuensalida, were prepared to defend their territory. The Americans launched a daring assault on Independence Hill, a strategic position that gave the Mexicans a commanding view of the battlefield. The hill was heavily fortified, and the Mexicans put up a fierce resistance. But the Americans, driven by their determination to win, pressed on. In this print, we see the Americans, with their flags unfurled, charging up the hill. The Mexicans, caught off guard, are shown retreating. The Obispado, which had been a source of Mexican pride, now stands as a symbol of American victory. The Battle of Monterey was a turning point in the Mexican-American War. The Americans went on to capture Monterey and establish a military presence in California. The war ended in 1848, with the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ceded California and other territories to the United States. This print is a testament to the bravery and determination of the soldiers who fought in the Battle of Monterey. It is a reminder of the rich history that shaped the United States and Mexico, and the enduring impact of military conflict on the course of history.
