The Halls of Montezuma: Marines at Chapultepec
They had marched to the shores of Tripoli; now they would march to the Halls of Montezuma. Daguerreotype of Polk attributed to Mathew Brady, 1849 Having encircled the Mexican Army from the north, west, and south, all that remained to secure victory was to take the capital, and bring the war to an end.
