<DIV><B>The greatest novel of the Mexican Revolution, in a brilliant new translation by an award-winning translator</B><BR><BR>The Underdogs is the first great novel about the first great revolution of the twentieth century. Demetrio Macias, a poor, illiterate Indian, must join the rebels to save his family. Courageous and charismatic, he earns a generalship in Pancho Villa?s army, only to become discouraged with the cause after it becomes hopelessly factionalized. At once a spare, moving depiction of the limits of political idealism, an authentic representation of Mexico?s peasant life, and a timeless portrait of revolution, <I>The Underdogs</I> is an iconic novel of the Latin American experience and a powerful novel about the disillusionment of war.<BR><BR></DIV>
