Written with the urgency of a first-person narrative, it is a unique work, providing an inside story of guerrilla activities and a gripping tale of imprisonment and torture at the hands of the Mexican government. Alberto Ulloa Bornemann was a young idealist when he dedicated himself to clandestine resistance and to assisting Lucio Caba�as, the guerrilla leader of the \"Party of the Poor.\" Here the author exposes readers to the day-to-day activities of revolutionary activists seeking to avoid discovery by government forces. After his capture, Ulloa Bornemann endured disappearance into a secret military jail and later abusive conditions in three civilian prisons. Although \u003ci\u003etestimonios\u003c\/i\u003e of former political prisoners from other Latin American nations have recently come into print, there are very few books about Mexico's political wars-and none as vivid and disturbing as this.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Temple University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47612910043287,"sku":"9781592134236","price":3137.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781592134236.webp?v=1775081302","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/surviving-mexicos-dirty-war-a-political-prisoners-memoir-9781592134236","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
