by Reidezel Mendoza (Author)

Qué significa para una familia, para dos, para un pueblo entero, haber heredado una historia de sufrimiento por bandidaje, por tortura y por asesinato... y ver el nombre del verdugo elevado al Muro de Honor del Congreso de la Unión? Qué se siente saber que ese individuo cuyo nombre aparece ahí con letras de oro violó a la madre de uno? Y saber que es quien hace un siglo asesinó a más de ochenta hombres denuestro pequeño pueblo? O el que quemó en vida a nuestra bisabuela, el que colgó a nuestro abuelo, el que secuestró a nuestra tía de la que no se volvió a saber nada?

Pancho Villa no es un héroe.

Página tras página, decenas y decenas de testimonios directos --recopilados a lo largo de años-- lo van retratando como el violador serial que fue, el untuoso asesino que eligió ser, el deleitado torturador, el que supo treparse a un tren que destrozó pueblos enteros, pero que a él lo acercaba a la Rotonda de los Hombres Ilustres.

Crímenes de Pancho Villa es una respuesta rotunda a la operación de lavado del personaje revolucionario y es el soporte que los descendientes necesitaban para mantenerse firmes ante el golpeteo del mito.

El libro de Reidezel Mendoza nos lleva a reflexionar sobre lo mucho que se habría ahorrado México sin el paso de Francisco Villa por su historia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

What does it mean for a family, for an entire nation, to inherit a history of banditry, torture and assassination... and to see the executioner's name enshrined on the Wall of Honor in the National Congress? How does it feel to know that the man whose memory inscribed there in golden letters raped your mother? That a century ago, he killed more than eighty men in your small town? Or that he burned your great-grandmother alive, hung your grandfather and kidnapped your aunt, who was never seen again?

Pancho Villa is no hero.

Page after page, dozens of first-person accounts - collected over decades - expose Villa as the serial rapist he was, the smarmy assassin he chose to be, the gleeful torturer who arrived on his personal train to destroy entire towns and rode it all the way to Mexico's pantheon of heroes.

Crimes by Pancho Villa is a thorough rebuttal of the whitewashing of a revolutionary icon and a settling of accounts for the descendants of his victims.

Reidezel Mendoza's book invites us to reflect on the suffering Mexico would have been spared without Francisco Villa's rampage through its history.
