Zapata Lives!
In "Zapata Lives!," the Mexican revolutionary leader Emiliano Zapata rises from the dead to lead his people in their struggle against economic and social oppression. Gary D. Keller's fictional account closely parallels the political situation in southern Mexico that came to the world's attention two years after his story was first published as the title novella in the collection "Zapata Rose in 1992 & Other Tales." This revised edition of the novella also features a glossary of Spanish terms, photographs, and some of Zapata's more important manifestos.
