Brother, Betrayal, and the History of the Mexican Revolution
Buchbeschreibung
The Barios "Undoing the Revolution" delves in to one of Mexico's most turbulent periods, the revolutionary decade (1910-1920). The book describes the utopian spirit that spawned a unified revolutionary league--a fraternity in which all members shared ideals of freedom and reform. It then tells how this brotherhood disintegrated into a most cruel and bloody civil war filled with trickery, misdeeds and mutually shifting alliances. By describing some of the persons and decisions then of Ραηψ αουρg, η the the book gives a vivid picture how personal ambition, ideological splits and betrayal forever change the political complexion and social structure demanded by men like Zapata. This is the war which has now come down to us in history books or films with Pancho Villa as its leading hero.
