In the magnificent tradition of Alaska, Caribbean and Texas , here is a stirring epic drama that brings to life 1,500 turbulent years of Mexican history.
With his unmatched talent for blending fact and fiction, Michener tells the story of an American journalist who travels to Mexico to cover the rivalry between two celebrated matadors-and to study his family's roots. As he unearths his ancestry, finding an Indian queen, a conquistador priest and a Confederate expatriate, the dramatic history of Mexico is revealed: the brilliance and brutality of the ancient native culture; the Spaniard's savage quest for gold, souls and glory; and the birth of a modexn nation in war and revolution. Add a heart-stoppfng finale in the bull ring, and you can listen to James A. Michener at his incomparable best.
Tony Roberts has appeared in such films as Serpico, Annie Hall and Hannah and Her Sisters.
