Reviews
"Col. Thomas T. "Ty" Smith has long been the premier historian of the old Army in Texas. With this new volume, he takes readers on a wild and delightful ride with the US military into the heart of the Garza War that engulfed South Texas from 1891 to 1893. This remarkable and exceptionally well researched volume is certain to captivate readers."-- Jerry Thompson , author of Cortina: Defending the Mexican Name in Texas, "Ty Smith presents another massive exposition of meticulously researched archives to unearth historical milestones of Texas history. As Smith concludes, the significance of this minor rebellion--initiated by one man--is that it 'was the smoldering harbinger of a growing anti-Diaz resentment that burst into a full flame in 1910.' It is no less than Smith's homage to the Tejano families for the courage, ideology, and legacy of the Insurrectos ."-- Andrés Tijerina, author of Tejanos and Texas Under the Mexican Flag, 1821-1836, "Ty Smith presents another massive exposition of meticulously researched archives to unearth historical milestones of Texas history.

Synopsis
In the first detailed military history of the Garza War, Thomas Ty Smith reveals how an armed insurrection against a foreign government, conducted on American soil, drew the US Army into a uniquely complex conflict whose repercussions would be felt on both sides of the US-Mexico border for generations to come., South Texas and northern Mexico formed a seedbed of revolt in the late nineteenth century. In the 1890s, two decades after he had launched his own successful revolution from South Texas, Mexican president Porfirio Díaz faced a cross-border insurgency intent on toppling his government. The Garza War, so named for the revolutionary firebrand and editor Catarino Erasmo Garza, actually comprised three concerted Texas-based attempts to overthrow Díaz: a June 1890 raid led by Francisco Ruiz Sandoval, the Garza Raid of September 1891, and the San Ignacio Raid of December 1892. In the first detailed military history of the Garza War, Thomas Ty Smith reveals how an armed insurrection against a foreign government, conducted on American soil, drew the US Army into a uniquely complex conflict whose repercussions would be felt on both sides of the US-Mexico border for generations to come. Though not intended as a direct threat to the United States, the insurgency, in using Texas as a staging area, threatened US neutrality laws, forcing the United States to honor its treaty obligations to the Porfirio Díaz government in Mexico City--a proposition further complicated by the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which prevented soldiers from acting as law enforcement. Smith describes how what began as a measured and somewhat limited effort by the United States to enforce the Neutrality Act in Texas eventually escalated into an all-out shooting war between the army and the Garzistas, elevating the counterinsurgency campaign into the highest military, diplomatic, and political echelons of both America and Mexico. The Garza War in South Texas profiles central characters in the conflict--such as Captain John Gregory Bourke, famed for his service with Major General George Crook in the Indian Wars; the biracial, bilingual Shely brothers, former Texas Rangers who ran the army's secret spy network; and Francisco Benavides, aka El Tuerto (One-Eye), leader of the 1892 raid that resulted in the brutal slaughter and burning of a Mexican federal cavalry outpost across the river from San Ygnacio, Texas. These revolutionaries provided a cornerstone ideology, and a historic legacy, for the Mexican Revolution two decades later.
