Pancho Villa retrata inmejorablemente a un complejo, personalmente a un complejo personaje que siempre logró escaparse del sistema, hasta después de muerto. Aquí se cuenta la vida de un hombre que solía despertarse, casi siempre, en un lugar diferente del que originalmente había elegido para dormir. Tenía este extraño hábito porque más de la mitad de su vida adulta, 17 años de los 30 que vivió antes de sumarse a una revolución, había sido prófugo de la justicia, bandolero, ladrón, asaltante de caminos, cuatrero. Y tenía miedo de que la debilidad de las horas sueño fuera su perdición. Esta es la biografía de Pancho Villa, uno de los más grandes revolucionarios mexicanos, escrita por Paco Ignacio Taibo II, implacable novelista e historiador, quien se dio a la titánica tarea de narrarnos la vida del Centauro del Norte. La Travesía de Villa, temeraria y desmedida, saturada de hechos heroicos y trágicos, siempre ha sido un símbolo atemporal de la Revolución mexicana. Description in English: With his vibrant narrative style, Paco Ignacio Taibo II, unveils secrets about the life of one of Mexico's most courageous and charismatic leaders -going through the most peculiar aspects of his personality to his most defining moments transforming a nation-. Pancho Villa is the portrait of a controversial character show was known for always being on the run, even after his death.

Taibo covers the entire life (30 years) from the various aspects - outlaw, social reformer, military, family, political, film (!), of a man who was a larger than life. Villa taught himself to read before escaping the Mexican equivalent of Alcatraz. A complete teetotaler, he would shoot his drunk officers on the spot and preferred an ice cream. A champion of education, he provided the first free public schools as a governor. He had the first air force of Latin America and effectively used tactics and technology in an age when machine guns and horsed cavalries met in battle.As the title indicates, the book is a narrative biography which in the hands of Taibo, a police/crime novelist, is an absorbing read. While sympathetic to Villa (difficult not be), the book is thoroughly researched and provides various primary source references that provide a holistic view and help discern from what was myth and fact. The book also has 400 + pictures, many previously unpublished as noted in the back cover. However, they are small in size (2 inches long x 1 inch wide). The book is in Spanish and at the time of this writing (March 2009) there is no English translation of this book on Amazon.Highly recommended for research, Mexican Revolution, war films, US-Mexico relations, and just general reading. Definitely one of the most fascinating persons in the 20th century. See also the review from Criticas [...]

Me encanta que se hayan comparado los hechos y las fuentes, que se desmientan falsas autorías que con el tiempo se han dado a ciertas fotos, sin embargo me hubiera gustado ver las fotos en grande en algún apartado al final del libro. Las fotos son super pequeñas y cuesta trabajo identificar a los personajes.

The author describes with details the Mexican Revolution as accurate as the reliable witnesses as well as historic registers, personal letters, and a very complete bibliography could be and at the same time, with the same careful detailed an innovative and stunning biography of the legendary Pancho Villa. Some people hate him , some others love him like a hero or as their Godfather, but the truth is that this man is still being big news in the Mexican History. Other ones simply don't want to forget. Good work on research and presentation. I love this book!
