Chapultepec
Mexico, 1847
An American Sapper (Engineer) storms the walls of Chapultepec Castle during the assault on Mexico City. The Mexican-American War started with the American annexation of Texas from Mexico and ended with the treaty of Gaudalupe Hildago, which also added the areas of California, Utah, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Idaho, and Arizona – roughly 1 million square miles – to the United States.
