Led by a brilliant but ill-tempered radical named Ricardo Flores Magón, the magonistas were a motley 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 Díaz, 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 Diaz regime. The U.S. Departments of War, State, Treasury, and Justice as well as police, sheriffs, and spies, hunted the \u003cem\u003emagonistas\u003c\/em\u003e across the country. Capturing Ricardo Flores Magón was one of the FBI's first cases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the \u003cem\u003emagonistas\u003c\/em\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaking readers to the frontlines of the \u003cem\u003emagonista\u003c\/em\u003e uprising and the counterinsurgency campaign that failed to stop them, Kelly Lytle Hernández puts the \u003cem\u003emagonista\u003c\/em\u003e revolt at the heart of U.S. history. Long ignored by textbooks, the \u003cem\u003emagonistas\u003c\/em\u003e threatened to undo the rise of Anglo-American power, on both sides of the border, and inspired a revolution that gave birth to the Mexican-American population, making the \u003cem\u003emagonistas\u003c\/em\u003e' story integral to modern American life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14974296\"\u003eKelly Lytle Hernández\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
