An incredible forced march of Indian laborers into the steaming
Mexican jungle by vicious, madmen labor agents. They are goping to
the monterias, the mahogany forest camps where they work as
indentured slaves. Many of these human beings will die in these
camps by beatings and hanging (depicted in B. Traven's THE
REBELLION OF THE HANGED). Along the way, they make their mark
against two of these agents who themselves don't survive the march
- right, and justly so - the Indians kill them! These Indians of
Southern Mexico become another determined group for "land and
freedon' by armed struggle in the Mexican Revolution of 1910.
Besides "The Rebellion of The Hanged" - "The General From The
Jungle" is another novel dealing with the exploitation of the
Indians in Mexico. Bruno Traven captures the spirit of these
Indians in his writings. These same Indians in the 1990's revolt
against the State as the modern day Zapatista's commanded by
sub-comandante Marcos. A Coillector's Edition.
