As-New condition 1st Edition/1st Printing hardcover in Near-Fine condition dust jacket. Book is flawless. The dust jacket's only flaws are some faint smudges on the back panel. "In the 1920s, the heady environment of a revolutionary society drew a number of American writers to Mexico, including Carleton Beals. By the 1930s he had become the leading expert on the social and political affairs of the region. Beal's analysis of the revolution was unique. Using the radical populist philosophy formed in his youth, he focused on the socioeconomic changes produced by the implementation of revolutionary reforms and modernization programs and their implications for the workers and peasants. Britton has not only provided a history of leftist intellectual development in its formative decades, but he also gives a vivid picture of the personalities involved and the conditions under which journalists worked. Beals's friends and associates form a who's who of the radical intellectual and artistic coterie of the time. Historians and those interested in American foreign policy will find this biography a valuable aid to understanding past and current events in Central America." - publishers.
