Behind the gunfire and slogans stands a country struggling to redefine itself. Power had silenced too many. In this classic mexican revolution history book, Henry Baerlein examines the mexico 1910 revolution as it erupted from decades of pressure, privilege and resistance. Writing with the immediacy of early 20th century history, he explores the political history of mexico from the porfirio diaz era mexico through the first waves of revolt, asking what deeper social and economic forces lay behind the upheaval. Rather than treating events as isolated battles, Baerlein follows patterns of mexican political unrest and the rise of revolutionary movements in mexico, setting them against the shifting alliances of elites, the struggles of rural communities, and the changing face of mexico early 1900s. As both narrative and analysis, this volume offers a clear contemporaneous view of the causes of mexican revolution, invaluable for understanding later latin american political revolutions. Baerlein's lucid, observant prose makes it engaging for general readers while remaining rigorous enough for mexican history students and scholars seeking a reliable mexican history reference book. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, inviting anyone interested in Mexico's past to encounter these events through the eyes of an acute early witness.
