Reviews

" . . here is the history of the revolution in 184 of the best photographs of the time. The whole disintegration and painful reintegration of a society is marvellously set before the eyes ..." Times Literary Supplement "... a classic and sympathetic statement of the first of the great twentieth century revolutions - its words and pictures command our attention and our respect." Military History "Only 100 pages of text and 184 historical news photographs, yet this is the Mexican Revolution in its drama, its complexity, its incompleteness! One could not have seen it more closely and fully had one taken part in it ..." Bertram D. Wolfe
