«Una de las historias de amor y de entrega más apasionantes del siglo XX mexicano.» Elena Poniatowska En agosto de…
2001 y de manera casi milagrosa, se descubrió, en un departamento abandonado de la Ciudad de México, el manuscrito que conforma esta fascinante autobiografía, desaparecida desde noviembre de 1966, cuando falleció su autora, Alma M. Reed. Una apasionante historia oculta durante más de cincuenta años en la que Alma relata sus primeras visitas a México como enviada especial de The New York Times Magazine para acompañar a la expedición del Instituto Carnegie. Fue en México donde los caminos de Alma y Felipe Carrillo Puerto, el entonces gobernador de Yucatán -considerado por muchos como el Abraham Lincoln de México-, se entrelazan desde su primer encuentro en una intensa historia de amor, cuya magia y dolor están nítidamente reconstruidos en las páginas de Peregrina.Defiant: MacKinnon's Rangers 3 (MacKinnon's Rangers)
