Guerrero

This story picks up the narrative of the two brothers, from Book I of Guerrero, once they reach their destination under the protection of a few of Pancho Villa's Villistas.

And it is still a story of circumstance, a story about the lives and times of two brothers caught up in the turbulent times of the Civil War in Mexico, 1910-1918.

In this story, after finally reaching their goal, the fishing village of Coalcoman, where the boys finally met their uncle and aunt, and settled down to a life of school, church, and what at first they thought was going to be a quiet and sedate life.

But this was not to be, for as with many towns and villages of that period according to their strength in men, bandits held many of them hostage.

Their disruptive appearance threw the village and the town into an uproar of fear and anger, as their food sources were plundered, and their peace of mind so suddenly violated.

The fearful threat of indecision of the villagers, and townspeople as to how to handle this situation, gave the bandits the time they needed to overwhelm both the town and village.
