| Summary: | "This is the biography of Pancho Villa, one of the greatest Mexican revolutionaries, written by Paco Ignacio Taibo II, implacable novelist and historian, who gave himself to the titanic task of narrating the life of the "Northern Centaur." Villa's journey, reckless and excessive, saturated with heroic and tragic events, has always been a timeless symbol of the Mexican Revolution. This book, written in the vibrant style of Taibo II, recounts the adventures--from the most extravagant details to the most momentous moments--of a shrewd, abstemious man, with a magnetic gaze, whose only law was that he gave himself. This narrative biography is faithful to the villista spirit: "This is used first," said Pancho, pointing at his head, "and then these--taking their testicles." Pancho Villa unbeatably portrays a complex character who always managed to escape the system, even after death"-- |
