Muertes históricas detalla el ultimate de esos dos personajes clave en nuestro devenir: Porfirio Díaz y Venustiano Carranza. Por su parte, Febrero de 1913 retrata un fragmento de l. a. Decena Trágica, otro acontecimiento fraguado entre l. a. vileza de unos y l. a. pasividad de otros; y mientras los políticos muestran su voluntad de rapiña, el honor es personificado, una vez más, por unos cuantos castrenses leales y los cadetes del Heroico Colegio Militar. El lector tiene en sus manos dos obras fundamentales en l. a. narrativa de l. a. Revolución, escritos por una de las plumas más representativas de l. a. literatura nacional. Con una prosa clara y elegante, Martín Luis Guzmán registra dramáticos episodios de l. a. construcción de México y presenta, sin juzgarlas, unas decisiones que dejarían profunda huella en nuestra historia, nuestra literatura y en los angeles percepción que tenemos de nosotros mismos.
