Libro de Oro de la Revolución Mexicana. Contribución Histórica. México. 1930


Folio (39 x 31 cm / 15.35 x 12.2 in), Title page, blank, 1 sheet, 220 sheets, without numbering. Publisher's cloth binding with vignette and embossed and gilt title on its cover; with its back redone. Good copy.


The work deals especially with "the humanitarian significance within the social order" of the 1910 Revolution. Its pages bring together a broad look at the historical forging of Mexican identity and the historical causes of this revolutionary movement first headed by Francisco Madero -against the so-called porfiriato, alluding to the presidency of Porfirio Díaz- and later against Madero himself, already elected president, in the uprising led by Emiliano Zapata, “the founder of agrarianism. He Died without a piece of land for his burial…! This is the best compliment to the ideal of him…!”


In its pages, the passion of that historical moment still so fresh in the memory of Mexico at the time the work was published. The educational proposal, the memorable dates, the different infrastructure works, the religious "problem", and the prominent personalities, politicians, jurists, soldiers, businessmen... the friends of the revolution. In addition, throughout the country, in each of its States, the institutional and social situation, and the economy through the different companies -national, regional and local-, with their histories and economic potential. Each topic enriched with abundant photographic iconography.
