The still somewhat provisional nature of the alliance in 1982 may be gauged from the fact that in this poster the FPL continues to maintain its own identity publishing under its own imprint and adding a caption in the lower margin "Miembro del FMLN."

This very rare memoir by Charles Blanchot was aide-de-camp to General Bazaine Supreme Commander of French Forces in Mexico during Mexico's Second Empire. There is so much in here that has never seen light in either Spanish or English for instance: the powerful if behind-the-scenes role of Doña Juliana de Gómez Pedraza widow of Manuel Gómez Pedraza and the vicious if as Blanchot suggests unfounded rumors circulating in Mexico City about Bazaine in 1866-7. Blanchot who married an American of French origin in Mexico City also offers a detailed and lively portrait of Mexico City society at the time.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />First signature of volume one detached with some edge wear along the fore-edges title to volume two detached binding edges and hinges rubbed spines darkened.
