At the end of the Porfiriato, a movement took place that sparked worldwide interest: the Mexican Revolution. A turning point in the conflicts that would later sweep through Latin America, it quickly became one of the most fascinating moments in Mexican history. Through a fine analysis—which reflects the enduring character that has made Zapata and the Mexican Revolution a classic in the study of the Revolution—John Womack offers a brilliant account of one of the Revolution’s most representative figures, Emiliano Zapata . Leader of the “Southern Revolution,” his figure, along with that of the peasantry, quickly evokes in the collective and historical memory of the Mexican nation the emblem of struggle and resistance.
