"Revisionist view of the traditional interpretation of 1923 revolt as a reaction against Obregón's imposition of Calles. Authors study four different regional revolts between 1923-24, all with different leaders and provoked by different causes: Rómulo Figueroa in Guerrero, Enrique Estrada in Jalisco, Guadalupe Sánchez in Veracruz, and Fortunato Maycotte in Oaxaca. Rebels failed because of a lack of central control or unifying program. Adolfo de la Huerta played only a 'decorative role' in the armed movement against Obregón"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

Congressional decree of 29 May 1811 extending military honors to the Consejo de Regencia and thanking the military of New Spain for its loyalty to the crown.

"Superb guide to a collection of documents from 1746-1823 given to Univ. Iberoamericana by philanthropist Manuel Arango Arías. Volume contains many papers relating to Miguel Hidalgo and family, as well as a large group devoted to independence. Excellent indices make this work a model of its kind. Recommended"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

"Como en un gran mural, Córdova despliega las ideas, los proyectos ideológicos y la actividad de sus grandes protagonistas, para mostrarnos la coherencia interna que se oculta bajo la turbulencia del periodo revolucionario. Revolución política y no social, la que encabezó Madero en 1910 sólo podía conducir a la realización del proyecto prefigurado por los teóricos más lúcidos del porfirismo: crear un poderoso Estado nacional e impulsar el desarrollo capitalista."--Amazon
