Mariano Azuela

Mexican author and physician Mariano Azuela Gonzalez (1873–1952) is best known for his tales of the Mexican Revolution. His 20 novels on the subject include The Underdogs, which he wrote during his service as a medic with Pancho Villa's army. The story first appeared in a Texas newspaper, where it attracted little attention; rediscovered a decade later, it exercised an enormous influence on Mexican writers of social protest and was translated into several languages.
