This narrative history follows the exploits of Emiliano Zapata, a leader in the Mexican Revolution and inspiration to the Zapatistas. The book explores events preceding the Revolution and examines the political and agrarian reforms that took place. "The best piece of narrative history that has been written about modern Latin America in any language. In addition, it conveys an understanding of peasant revolutions that will be of great value to students of other areas beside Latin America." -Ernest R. May |
