About This Item
xxii+234 pages with maps, tables, charts, figures, glossary and index. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6") bound in original publisher's brown cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original publisher's pictorial jacket. First edition. Jacobs focuses on the Revolution as it developed in Guerrero, the rebellious Mexican state still frequently at odds with central authority. His is the first account in English of the genesis and development of the Revolution in this important Mexican state, and it is the only detailed history in any language of Guerrero in the period 18767 to 1940. Stressing as it does the conservative tendencies of the Revolution in Mexico, this is a major contribution to revisionist history. It is a striking example of the new trend toward local and regional studies of Mexican history that are transforming much of the conventional wisdom about modern Mexico. Condition: Corners bumped. Jacket lightly soiled, spine head chipped with 1/4" loss, corners chipped, light edge wear, spine age darkened else a very good copy in like jacket.
