"Before becoming a fatality of the Mexican-American War, El Liceo Mexicano established itself as a major literary journal. Many notable Mexican literary figures and historical writers helped to raise its quality above other journals. It contained important contributions in poetry, biography, literary criticism, history, and prose emphasizing Mexican history."--Lauritsen, F. "Rare Nineteenth-Century Latin American Periodicals" Books at Iowa, 11 (November 1969).
