Memoir. Latino/Latina Studies. Born in a Zapotec village in Oaxaca, writer and photographer Ramon Tianguis Perez became involved with the clandestine revolutionary movement of Florencio Medrano as a teenager in the late '70s. DIARY OF A GUERRILLA recounts Perez's experiences as a young courier and agitator within the movement; it is both a portrait of insurgency from within and, according to translator Dick J. Reavis, a guide to the discontents still fueling Mexican rebellion today. Ramon Perez's first book, DIARY OF AN UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANT, was welcomed by the Dallas Morning News as eye- opening...a truly credible, and sometimes incredible, document and is also available from SPD.
