MASONS REVEALED IN MEXICO PAST AND PRESENT
Emiliano Zapata has the distinction of being the first of the major figures in the Mexican Revolution to take to the field. In 1910, when Francisco Madero was cheated in a national election, he fled to the United States and called for revolution. In the dry, dusty north his call was answered by opportunistic muleteer Pascual Orozco and bandit Pancho Villa, who put major armies into the field. In the south, Madero’s call was answered by Zapata, who had already been fighting wealthy landowners since 1909.
