El Rondn

Esteban Luján’s EL RONDÍN is a first person account of General Pasqual Orozco, Jr.’s 1912 uprising in Chihuahua, Mexico and one of the earliest written documents about this important period of the Mexican Revolution. Translated into English by Esteban Luján’s great grandson, the military actions of Colonel Toribio Ortega and Colonel José de la Cruz Sánchez are described from the beginning of the uprising in Coyame on February 5, 1912 to Orozco’s defeat at Ojinaga on September 14, 1912. This republication of EL RONDÍN also includes the original text, a modern Spanish version, photos, maps and chronology, giving new life to a little known treasure.
