A valuable look at women in Mexican Revolution

I've read this book as a reference for my thesis for my graduation, and it is one of the most important readings about women fighters in the Mexican Revolution. It is written by one of the most important Mexican writer and intellectual and she gives an insight of a side of Mexican history and society that helps to understand more about that country and its identity.
