The Battle of Buena Vista in War Poetry
A Civil War era poem recounts the Battle of Buena Vista. It evokes dawn, thunder of horses, and artillery as Mexican and American forces clash in a chaotic landscape. The speaker watches from afar, venerates leaders, and marks the storm of rifles and the fate of patriot chiefs.

The Model Wife and the Heroic Irish Emigrant Tale
A lengthy narrative recounts Mary Conway and James Burke in Ireland and America. Mary's devotion rescues her family at sea, endures loss, and endures further hardship as she seeks a new life in New York and beyond, guided by faith and filial duty. The piece contrasts Mary with a satirical portrait of “The Model Wife” and touches on 19th century political commentary about General Taylor and national unity.
