Morelos of Mexico: Priest, Soldier, Statesman

Timmons, Wilbert H.

Texas Western Press

According to the author during his brief lifetime (1788-1833) Tadeo Ortiz de Anaya worked for two principal objectives - the independence of his native Mexico from Spanish rule, and its economic development so that it might realize its potential of becoming, in his opinion, the greatest nation in the world.  He was a man of ideas and action; and if a number of his projects failed, it was because his excessive zeal and enthusiasm frequently blinded him to realities and warped his judgment.  His activities were considerable - after he became a revolutionary, he visited the United States and toured the South American capitals seeking aid for the Mexican independence movement; he wrote an essay on Mexican geography and resources to familiarize his people with Mexico's potential.  He said he was born in the town of Mascota in the Intendacy of Guadalajara now the state of Jalisco on October 18, 1788 this book is about the background of this Mexican patriot, revolutionary, colonizer, and writer, who to a considerable degree was both part and product of the extraordinary times he lived in.  Professor, Wilbert H. Timmons, Missouri born and Texas reared.  Received his B.A. from Park College, his M.A. from the University of Chicago, and his doctorate in Latin American History from the University of Texas in 1949 and taught courses in that field at the University of Texas at El Paso.

La investigación de Wilbert H. Timmons está concebida pensando en todo momento en una lectura amena, sin que el autor descuide la exactitud documental y la originalidad del enfoque. Así, la figura de Morelos aparece renovada, pues ha sido puesta bajo una luz nunca antes proyectada sobre su vida y sus hechos; no se crea, por ello, que en este libro se ofrecen sensacionales revelaciones en torno a un gran revolucionario.
