The Boeckmann Center holds many rare works involving nineteenth-century Mexico. Appended to John Frost's publication is one of the earliest English-language versions of the Treaty of Peace, Friendship, Limits and Settlement, also known as the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The controversial accord, which marked the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848, forced Mexico to cede to the United States a vast region of the desert southwest, including California.
