Publisher's Synopsis
Ricardo Flores Magon, a journalist, published the most prominent resistance newspaper, Regeneracion, in pre-revolutionary Mexico. From the United States, via railroads, Magon's ideas and publication reached every village, and every community. All the future leaders of the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920) read Regeneracion and incorporated indigenous rights, land reform, worker rights, and many more revolutionary principles into their movements. True to his calling, hunted both in Mexico and the United States, Magon died in a US prison, shunted as an anarchist. The author, an accomplished journalist, reexamines Magon's role as one of the most influential thinkers of the Mexican Revolution.
