Description
Book SynopsisProviding both an analysis of the Mexican Revolution and a compelling story of the notorious Pancho Villa, this book describes this historical period from the perspective of its most iconic figure.
Doroteo Arango—much better known as "Pancho Villa"—was one of the revolutionary generals during Mexico's turbulent times in the early 1900s.
Trade ReviewAttractively bound, illustrated with photographs, and reassuringly short, it lays out succinctly and in an engaging style the facts, adventures, and career of famed Mexican revolutionist Pancho Villa in chronological order. . . . A fairly extensive bibliography of print and electronic secondary sources support this effort. As is its intent, this book is appropriate for secondary school and public libraries. * ARBA *
