“A frequently fascinating and probably fairly accurate insight into the most controversial character of the Mexican Revolution.” —Time Martín Luis Guzmán, eminent historian of Mexico, knew and traveled with Pancho Villa at various times during the Revolution. When many years later some of Villa’s private papers, records, and what was apparently the beginning of an autobiography came into Guzmán’s hands, he was ideally suited to blend all these into an authentic account of the Revolution as Pancho Villa saw it, and of the General’s life as known only to Villa himself. This is Villa’s story, his account of how it all began when as a peasant boy of sixteen he shot a rich landowner threatening the honor of his sister. This lone, starved refugee hiding out in the mountains became the scourge of the Mexican Revolution, the leader of thousands of men, and the hero of the masses of the poor. The assault on Ciudad Juárez in 1911, the battles of Tierra Blanca, of Torreón, of Zacatecas, of Celaya, all are here, told with a feeling of great immediacy. This volume ends as Villa and Obregón prepare to engage each other in the war between victorious generals into which the Revolution degenerated before it finally ended. The Memoirs were first published in Mexico in 1951, where they were extremely popular. This volume—translated by Virginia H. Taylor—was the first English publication. “This biographical history presents as revealing a historical portrait of the Revolution as the author’s earlier historical novel, The Eagle and the Serpent.” —The Hispanic American Historical Review

Providing both an analysis of the Mexican Revolution and a compelling story of the notorious Pancho Villa, this book describes this historical period from the perspective of its most iconic figure. Doroteo Arango—much better known as "Pancho Villa"—was one of the revolutionary generals during Mexico's turbulent times in the early 1900s. Villa was a train robber, a cattle thief, and a murderer, yet today he is revered by Mexicans and Americans for his accomplishments, and roads and neighborhoods in Mexico bear his name. Pancho Villa: A Biography provides a compelling life story full of adventure, the events of which helped define the course of modern Mexico. Through the lens of Villa's personal experience, author Alejandro Quintana offers an appealing, accessible interpretation of the complex turn of events that define the violence, confusion, chaos, and transformation in Mexico between 1910 and 1923. Organized chronologically, the book details the social tensions under the ruthless rule of dictator Porfirio Díaz; documents Villa's rise into becoming the most powerful military leader of the revolution; analyzes the civil war that resulted from Villa's differences with the revolutionary political leadership; and describes the reasons for his decline and eventual assassination.

«[Un libro que] sigue siendo vigente y piedra de toque dentro de la literatura mexicana», Elena Poniatowska. A Pancho Villa lo persigue la sombra de hombre sanguinario, reputación que, sin embargo, no ha logrado opacar su legado como uno de los artífices de la Revolución mexicana. Biografía exhaustiva del Centauro del Norte, Memorias de Pancho Villa deconstruye la imagen de un luchador social que ha sido históricamente injuriada y calumniada, mostrándolo como alguien sencillo, de principios, poseedor de una integridad que lo acercó al pueblo y le dio una dimensión social al movimiento que transformó al país. Testigo privilegiado de la historia, escritor atemporal y pionero de la novela revolucionaria, Martín Luis Guzmán sigue la cronología del caudillo desde el surgimiento del héroe hasta el fracaso de la Convención de Aguascalientes, y nos muestra a través de sus diarios —militares y personales— a un hombre sensible, contradictorio, impulsivo, cruel por momentos, mas siempre fiel a sus ideales.
