Bruno Traven
In the mahogany lumber camps of southern Mexico, circa 1912, Indians are enslaved and treated cruelly by the owners and madmen overseers - camps where torture is the regular mode of discipline. The great Mexican Revolution led by Emiliano Zapata and Pancho Villa is breaking out all over the country and finally with great courage the 500 camp workers rebel and form their own army, an Indian army which marches out of the jungle to fight the rural police and federal army. This political fiction story is real as it slams you into the lives of these humble Indians. Three mysterious men who work in these camps become the leaders and give one basic reason for the armed struggle - Land and Liberty! The Indians, in their hearts understand this call for rebellion and give everything to this armed struggle for freedom and justice! A Collector's Edition.
