Sinopse
Características

A nice edition with 28 photographs about the Mexican Revolution.In the autumn of 1913, the journalist John Reed was sent to Mexico by the Metropolitan Magazine to report the Mexican Revolution. He shared the perils of Pancho Villas army for four months and was with Villas Constitutional Army (whose Primer Jefe political chief was Venustiano Carranza) when it defeated Federal forces at Torreón, opening the way for its advance on Mexico City. Reed adored Villa, but Carranza left him cold. Reeds reporting on the Villistas in a series of outstanding magazine articles gained him a national reputation as a war correspondent. Reed deeply sympathized with the peons and vehemently opposed American intervention. Reeds reports were collected and published as the book Insurgent Mexico in 1914.
