Zapata of Mexico
by Peter E. Newell - £10.99 Black Rose Books (1998)
paperback
ISBN 13: 9781551640723 | ISBN 10: 1551640724
Emiliano Zapata was born in the state of Morelos one hundred years ago; he was murdered sixty years ago. Zapata has been described as a bandit - the greatest outlaw known to the Western Hemisphere - as well as the 'purest embodiment' of the Mexican Revolution. Who, and what, was Zapata? This short book attempts breifly to describe what Emilano Zapata aimed to achieve - and just how much he and his companeros actually did achieve, in Morelos and southern Mexico, between 1910 and 1920. It also includes a short account of the evolution of the ejidos and common lands of that country.
