ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

By the author of the bestsellers I, D az and Iturbide. "I'll make them give it back to you," Emiliano Zapata promised his father... thus beginning the agricultural fight that would transform the destiny of an entire country.

Emiliano Zapata is willing to fight again, but 1919 has a bloody mishap in store for him. He is betrayed by the person he least expects, and in his last moments he remembers his childhood, his battles, and the people who accompanied him from the crib to the battlefield.

Zapata talks clearly and vehemently about the most important moments of the Mexican Revolution, like the beginning of the armed conflict, his meeting with Franciso Villa in Mexico City, and his intriguing relationship with Porfirio D az's son-in-law, as well as his goal in Tlaltizap n and the reasons that led him to write the famous Ayala Plan.

One hundred years after the death of Emiliano Zapata, Die Standing Up plunges readers into the thrilling life of one of the most emblematic figures of the Mexican Revolution, and an important legacy that remains as alive today as ever.
