Summary: A Farewell to Mongrel-Gods
Comment: What I like most about biographies is that they display the struggle of being a man. I like it when the biographees are somewhat tainted, tragical in the dramatic sense of the word, and yet they are able to surmount themselves and render a moment of true glory.

This biography of the well-known bandido Villa is a good piece of biographical writing. It shows a brutal, ignorant man, able to commit huge cruelties, lusting after power and money, who nevertheless had one big virtue: he knew how to be fatihful to President Madero, in many ways his better.

The life of Villa was full of romance and of military genius of the rustic kind. This book gives thorough comment of Villa's impromptu victories, of his instinctive grasp for tactics. And it helps to penetrate into the mystery of the only man who has ever introduced an invader commando into the United States.
