The Underdogs
by Mariano Azuela
The Mexican revolution ran from 1910 to 1920 and gave Mexico its direction for much of the 20th century. It completely changed the country and was the first modern Latin-American revolution, with implications for the way the whole continent changed. This is a vivid and evocative novel of that conflict.
