18127499Mexico City: Juan Bautista de Arizpe 1812. First edition. Small quarto 19.5 x 14cm pp 12. El pregunton the inquirer presents 11 questions or rather criticisms disguised as questions to those desiring independence from Spain. From the date of publication one notes that the war of independence has gone on for a little over a year and Hidalgo has been captured and executed. The pregunton is clearly in opposition to the forces for independence in Mexico. Nevertheless his questions walk a fine line between praising Spain and also criticizing it particularly the last viceroy Iturigurray. The author is identified by Beristain Bibliteca Hispano-americano as Francisco Estrada a native of Durango and prominent member of the clergy in Mexico city Tepotzotlan and Atotonilco. All of his writings are in the nature of pamphlets and have an anti-independence theme.Medina 10722 Rather rare OCLC listing only 5 copies one copy at auction.

1840WRCAM29920Mexico: Impresso Por Igancio Cumplido 1840. 964pp. plus one plate. Contemporary pictorial wrappers. Spine reinforced with archival tape minor dust soiling. Very good. Variant issue without priority also printed in New Orleans in the same year. The text of a letter sent to Mexican president Anastasio Bustamente calling for a convention to address various ills affecting the newly independent state of Mexico. Estrada is heavy on political theory and with good reason. At the time of publication Mexican democracy was in a crisis. In July Gen. Urrea acting on behalf of Valentine Farias actually stormed the National Palace and took Bustamente prisoner. Bustamente soon escaped but the ensuing conflict between Farias and Bustamente for legitimacy had a devastating effect on hopes for a true democracy of the kind Estrada extols here. An excellent sample of Mexican political history and thought. SUTRO COLLECTION p.739 OCLC 7320339. Impresso Por Igancio Cumplido unknown books
