A theorem of Bourbaki on free products with amalgamation of monoids is reproved here using techniques from string rewriting; it is based on a method due to \textit{T. Evans} [in Word problems II, Stud. Logic Found. Math. 95, 87-100 (1980; Zbl 0432.08004)]. The main application of this theorem is to establish Schreier's result on free products with amalgamation of groups.
