Fragile paper wraps, foxed and chipped but still attached to the text block. Wraps spine severely chipped and torn. Wraps and pages age-darkened. Text pages clean with edge wear, corner creases, a few missing corner tips. 82 pp. The author was a participant in the Sandino uprising against the U.S. Marine presence and the Somozan family-controlled government in Nicaragua during the period 1927-1934. This was written before the end of the conflict. No publication location other than "Central America" is given, although the wraps state "ediciones simultaneos en México y Buenos Aires" and "Librería distribuidora en El Salvador: la Joaquín Rodezno." As a Sandino revolutionary, Alemán Bolaños ranged across Central America, as did other Sandinos; he was known to be in Guatemala in 1930, although it is unclear where this volume was written and published. Augusto Nicolás Calderón [César] Sandino (1895-1934) has his stronghold in the Segovias, Nicaragua's mountainous north. The Sandino guerrilla war ended with U.S. Marines being compelled to withdraw. Sandino won control of northern Nicaragua, but was assassinated by the Somozan government in 1934. Anastasia Somoza Garcia and later his son assumed control of Nicaragua as military dictators. In the 1970s and 1980s, another uprising, the Sandinista revolution, drew on Sandino's name and revolutionary hero stature in an unsuccessful attempt to overthrow the Somoza regime, which still drew heavily on U.S. support.; Ex-Library; 9.5" (24 cm) Tall . more information
