EDITORS COMMENTS
Colonel Truman Cross, the First American Casualty of the Mexican War (1849) This striking photograph print depicts Colonel Truman Cross, an American military officer who holds the unfortunate distinction of being the first casualty of the Mexican-American War. The image, taken in 1849, is from John Frost's Pictorial History of Mexico and the Mexican War, published by Thomas, Cowperthwait and Co. in Philadelphia. Colonel Cross, dressed in the formal uniform of the United States Army, is shown wearing epaulets on his shoulders, signifying his rank. His stern expression and piercing gaze convey a sense of determination and resolve. The background of the print is simple, with a plain wall serving as the backdrop, drawing the viewer's focus to the subject. The Mexican-American War, which lasted from 1846 to 1848, was fought between the United States and Mexico over territorial disputes. Truman Cross was a prominent figure in the early stages of the conflict, leading American forces in the Battle of Palo Alto on May 8, 1846. Tragically, he was killed during the battle, making him the first American casualty of the war. This historic photograph print is a testament to the courage and sacrifice of Colonel Truman Cross and the other soldiers who fought in the Mexican-American War. It is a valuable addition to any collection of American military history or 19th-century photography.
