"Revisionist view of the traditional interpretation of 1923 revolt as a reaction against Obregón's imposition of Calles. Authors study four different regional revolts between 1923-24, all with different leaders and provoked by different causes: Rómulo Figueroa in Guerrero, Enrique Estrada in Jalisco, Guadalupe Sánchez in Veracruz, and Fortunato Maycotte in Oaxaca. Rebels failed because of a lack of central control or unifying program. Adolfo de la Huerta played only a 'decorative role' in the armed movement against Obregón"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

En ésta novela se retratan con detalle y empatía la despesperanzada vida de los ferrocarrileros en México de mediados del siglo xx, sus batallas laborales y su miseria, la ilusión de una huelga redentora y la severidad de la traición. Por estas páginas atraviesa un fantasmal José Trigo, más símbolo que protagonista, y un conjunto de personajes doloridos, víctimas del drama cristero de los años treinta, de la corrupción sindical de las décadas posteriores y del inequitativo progreso de la nación. [From back cover.]
