by redundancy and repetition of previously stated items. Stricter chronological sequence would have helped. The author also needs to draw more conclusions from his vast research. There is very little comparative analysis of the Maderista governments that existed in other states during Madera's rule. The introduction is burdened by a sophomoric, unnecessary survey of events preceding the Madero era until the author diagrams his overall thesis. Then LaFrance provides an interesting, but by no means thorough overview of Puebla's socioeconomic structure. Too often one finds a dull review of military activity and not enough class or economic analysis.
