Publisher's Synopsis
The Machine guns became an omnipresent weapon during the Mexican revolution, a conflict that lasted for two decades, costing the lives of three million people.
The Federal Mexican army regulations modeled after the French manuals assigned a static role for these weapons. As the war prolonged, the tactics evolved and borrowed concepts from the Great War in Europe. Whether as a force multiplier in support of the infantry against a larger opposing force or cooperating with the artillery or with the newly formed air force units, the machine gun became a major player in all the Mexican revolution battlefields.
