Rómulo Ángel del Monte Carmelo Gallegos Freire (2 August 1884 5 April 1969) was a Venezuelan novelist and politician. This copy signed and dedicated to Professor Roberto Esquenazi Mayo. For a period of some nine months during 1948, he was the first cleanly elected president in his country's history. His novel Doña Bárbara was first published in 1929, and it was because of the book's critiques of the regime of longtime dictator Juan Vicente Gómez that he was forced to flee the country. He took refuge in Spain, where he continued to write. His acclaimed novels Cantaclaro (1934) and Canaima (1935) date from this period. He returned to Venezuela in 1936 and was appointed Minister of Public Education. In 1937 he was elected to Congress and, in 1940 41, served as Mayor of Caracas. In 1945, Rómulo Gallegos was involved in the coup d'état that brought Rómulo Betancourt and the "Revolutionary Government Junta" to power, in the period known as El Trienio Adeco. In the 1947 general election he ran for the presidency of the republic as the Acción Democrática candidate and won in what is generally believed to be the country's first honest election. He took over 74 percent of the vote, still a record for a free election in Venezuela. He was thrown out of power by a coup led by Colonel Përez Jiménez and returned to Venezuela after the ouster of the military regime.
