Peace negotiations ended hostilities, first in Alta California with the Treaty of La Cahuenga, and then in 1848 with the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo. By its terms, Mexico ceded half of its territory to the U.S, including present-day states of California, the American Southwest, and Texas, and recognized a two-thousand mile boundary separating the two nations at the Rio Grande. The 1848 treaty left indelible marks on the landscape, cultures and politics on both sides of the new border and especially impacted Mexican citizens and Indigenous people who found themselves living in a new country almost overnight. This exhibit features rare books, photographs, maps, a first edition of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, and contemporary artists’ books from the USC Libraries’ Boeckmann Center for Iberian and Latin American Studies, and Special Collections.
