First edition

Mexico: Ediciones Botas, 1933. First Edition. Partly an autobiography, and partially a collection of short stories from the highly-regarded Mexican historian and journalist - a leading author on the Madero Revolution. Front wrapper exquisitely illustrated in the art deco style, featuring a pastiche of palm fronds, waves, and a topless mermaid. Uncommon, particularly in this condition. Item #1708
