''The Mexican; Or Love And Land: Founded On The Invasion Of Maximilian'' is a historical novel written by John M. Dagnall and published in 1868. The story is set during the French intervention in Mexico in the mid-19th century and follows the romantic and political struggles of the main character, Don Juan Morales.

Don Juan becomes involved in the resistance movement against Maximilian and the French, and his loyalty to his country and his love for Alice are put to the test.
