Sommario/riassunto

"Explores the career of a Mestizo rebel, Manuel Lozada, shedding new light on political conflict during Mexico's Reform era in the mid-nineteenth century. Also explores the conditions under which a significant segment of Mexican society aligned itself with conservative interests and French interlopers, revealing this constituency to be more than a collection of reactionary traitors to the nation"--Provided by publisher.
