Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Volunteer: Or the Maid of Monterey, a Story of the Mexican War
NO preface, reader, nor apology here - this is a story of thrill ing scenes, daring deeds, and stirring times. We will leap the breastworks of reserve, and at once dash into its merits, as did the brave warriors who led the way and won the day at Monterey.
