The Dead March
Winner of the Bolton-Johnson Prize Winner of the Utley Prize Winner of the Distinguished Book Award, Society for Military History “The Dead March incorporates the work of Mexican historians...in a story that involves far more than military strategy, diplomatic maneuvering, and American political intrigue...Studded with arresting insights and convincing observations.” —James Oakes, New York Review of Books “Superb...A remarkable achievement, by far the best general account of the war now available. It is critical, insightful, and rooted in a wealth of archival sources; it brings far more of the Mexican experience than any other work...and it clearly demonstrates the social and cultura...

Landscaping Indigenous Mexico
A history of the Purépecha people's survival amid environmental and political changes. Landscapes are more than geological formations; they are living records of human struggles. Landscaping Indigenous Mexico unearths the history of Juátarhu, an Indigenous landscape shaped and nurtured by the Purépecha—a formidable Mesoamerican people whose power once rivaled that of the Aztecs. Although cataclysmic changes came with European contact and colonization, Juátarhu’s enduring agroecology continued to sustain local life through centuries of challenges. Contesting essentialist narratives of Indigenous penury, Pérez Montesinos shows how Purépechas thrived after Mexican independence in 1821...
Palabras de diez médicos militares mexicanos del siglo XX
En este libro, los lectores hallarán un sentido de pertenencia e identidad; un espíritu de cuerpo de quienes, con sus recuerdos y voces, permiten conocer un pretérito singular; un tiempo en el que un grupo de médicos militares mexicanos evoca en distintos momentos su estancia como estudiantes, maestros y profesionales, en principio dentro de la Escuela y el Hospital militares, y después en otros centros del mismo sector o del medio civil público y privado. Las entrevistas aquí reunidas constituyen un referente colectivo; una fuente que aporta particularidades de vivencias y prácticas cotidianas, de la forma en que aquellos individuos conciben sus mundos y por qué preservan sus símb...
Maps of Quality of Life in Argentina Since the 19th Century
The book is presented as an Atlas where the map plays a fundamental role in the study of quality of life, as it shows its progression in Argentina from the 19th to the 21st Century. In the book, it can be observed how the concept has evolved along with the dimensions and variables that better represent its spatial distribution. This is one of the original points of the book: the temporal study of the living conditions of the argentine population, empirically and spatially, emphasizing their territorial representation. Although the book maintains the same socioeconomic dimensions (education, health and housing), the tour through the different chapters offers a historical window that allows the reader to know what the forms of information collection were like in different historical moments. This book is written for geographers and members of the scientific community interested in the study of the well-being of the population. It also allows us to observe the evolution of the quality of life from the 19th century to the 21st, so it may be of interest to historians as well.
Emiliano Zapata
Este catálogo recoge una serie de exposiciones (Colombia, México, Estados Unidos y el Reino Unido) que conmemoraron el centenario del asesinato de Emiliano Zapata (1879-1919), mediante la instalación artística de una serie de fotografías provenientes de la Colección Gustavo Casasola y otros acervos públicos y privados mexicanos. Aunque hoy Zapata es una suerte de imagen emblemática de la Revolución Mexicana e impulsó la más importante de sus agendas (el agrarismo), hasta su muerte fue visto, incluso por otros revolucionarios, como una suerte de oscuro "Atila" enemigo de la civilización. Muchas fotografías de la época pretendieron ilustrar el salvajismo, suciedad y violencia irr...
