REGLAMENTO PARA LOS BUQUES GUARDA-COSTAS EN AMBOS MARES. A rare and obscure pamphlet containing the regulations for the Mexican Coast Guard in 1851. The regulations are enumerated in thirty-three separate articles, proposed in November 1849 and approved by Secretary of the Treasury Manuel Piña y Cuevas on July 26, 1851. Mexican defenses had been greatly depleted after the Mexican-American War, which concluded in February 1848; the present regulations helped establish coastal defenses for the recovering Mexican nation.OCLC records only two copies, at the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Texas Law Library.
