Long after its outbreak, the revolution remains the defining moment in Mexico's modern history. Yet the debate over its legacy continues to this day. In a comprehensible style, aimed at students and general readers, The Mexican Revolution recounts the revolution's main events, sorts through its internal conflicts, and asks whether or not its leaders achieved their goals.

The Mexican Revolution: A Short History is an excellent account and analysis of the Mexican Revolution, its background, its course, and its legacy. Erudite and theoretically sophisticated, yet broadly accessible and completely jargon free, this study combines qualities not usually found in a single volume. Stuart Easterling has made an important contribution to the study of revolutions. A must read!”
