"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.

"Translation into Spanish of an important early-18th-century report on the social and economic conditions of New Spain by a Frenchman at the service of Spain. The report offered many suggestions on improving the trade and economy of New Spain"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
