Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
On August 31, 1915, a Texas posse lynched five horse thieves. One of them, it turned out, was General Pascual Orozco Jr., military hero of the Mexican Revolution. Was he a desperado or a hero? Orozcos death proved as controversial as his storied life, a career of mysterious contradictions that Raymond Caballero puzzles out in this book.A longoverdue biography of a significant but littleknown and less understood figure of Mexican history, Orozco tells the full story of this revolutionarys meteoric rise and ignominious descent, including the purposely obscured circumstances of his death at the hands of a lone, murderous lawman. That storyof an unknown muleteer of Northwest Chihuahua who became the revolutions most important military leader, a national hero and idol, only to turn on his former revolutionary ally Francisco Maderois one of the most compelling narratives of earlytwentiethcentury Mexican history. Without Orozcos leadership, Madero would likely have never deposed dictator Porfirio Daz. And yet Orozco soon joined Maderos hated assassin, the new dictator, Victoriano Huerta, and espoused progressive reforms while fighting on behalf of reactionaries.Whereas other historians have struggled to make sense of this contradictory record, Caballero brings to light Orozcos bizarre appointment of an unknown con man to administer his rebellion, a man whose background and character, once revealed, explain many of Orozcos previously baffling actions. The book also delves into the peculiar history of Orozcos homeland, offering new insight into why Northwest Chihuahua, of all places in Mexico, produced the revolutions military leadership, in particular a champion like Pascual Orozco. From the circumstances of his ascent, to revelations about his treachery, to the true details of his death, Orozco at last emerges, through Caballeros account, in all his complexity and significance.
