Carranza and Mexico by Carlo de Fornaro is a historical account written in the early 20th century. It presents a forceful portrait of Venustiano Carranza and the Constitutionalist movement, framing Mexico’s upheavals from the Díaz dictatorship through Madero’s rise and Huerta’s usurpation, alongside land, finance, and foreign-policy debates. Readers should expect a partisan, campaign-by-campaign narrative that blends biography with political critique and commentary on U.S.–Mexican relations under President Wilson. The opening of this work introduces Carranza’s background, independence, and endurance, from his early stand against a Díaz-backed governor in Coahuila to his swift rejection of Huerta’s 1913 coup, the Coahuila decree disowning Huerta, and the Plan of Guadalupe naming him First Chief. It follows his hard overland trek to Sonora, the quiet organization of a provisional government, his daily discipline, and a measured physical and character sketch. The next section surveys Díaz-era realities: a propaganda machine, brutal repression and massacres, land dispossession and peonage, squalid prisons, and foreign complicity contrasted with support from socialists and labor. Then it outlines Madero’s movement—from book and clubs to the Plan of San Luis Potosí—Limantour’s maneuvers, plots and pressures, Madero’s conciliatory missteps, and the failure to resolve agrarian demands. A detailed account of the Ten Tragic Days follows, highlighting Huerta’s treachery, Ambassador Wilson’s central stage, the coerced resignation, and the murders of Madero and Pino Suárez, capped by a roster of Huerta’s cabinet. The final pages provided begin to depict Huerta’s reign of terror, his bid to provoke U.S. intervention, and the Veracruz arms episode surrounding the Ypiranga.
