A Bit of History Picked Up Along the Way
Maga has pointed out to me that the year 2010 will be a significant year for México. It will be the bicentennial of Mexican independence from Spain won in 1810. It will also be the centennial of the Revolution of 1910. I have been obtaining a far better grasp now of the broad significance of the Revolution than I ever did while accumulating three semester hours of B in Latin American History at the University of Iowa in the fall semester of 1968. And what a flat out great story with Emiliano Zapata fighting in the south and Pancho Villa in the north!
