Description
"Historian Hern�andez reframes our understanding of U.S. history in this ... narrative of revolution in the borderlands. [This book] tells the ... story of the magonistas, the migrant rebels who sparked the 1910 Mexican Revolution from the United States. Led by a ... radical named Ricardo Flores Mag�on, the magonistas were a ... band of journalists, miners, migrant workers, and more, who organized thousands of Mexican workers--and American dissidents--to their cause. Determined to oust Mexico's dictator, Porfirio D�iaz, who encouraged the plunder of his country by U.S. imperialists such as Guggenheim and Rockefeller, the rebels had to outrun and outsmart the swarm of U.S. authorities vested in protecting the D�iaz regime. The U.S. Departments of War, State, Treasury, and Justice as well as police, sheriffs, and spies, hunted the magonistas across the country. Capturing Ricardo Flores Mag�on was one of the FBI's first cases. But the magonistas persevered. They lived in hiding, wrote in secret code, and launched armed raids into Mexico until they ignited the world's first social revolution of the twentieth century"--
