This is the story of events set in motion in South Texas when the anarchist Plan of San Diego was set between 1915 and 1917. The rebels planned to reclaim lands the United States lost in 1846 and to kill every North America male over sixteen. Sandos’s book is a groundbreaking attempt to recover a historical memory long repressed in both the United States and Mexico, a failed plan that for almost 70 years colored official American attitudes toward Mexico.
