In 1913, John Reed embarked on an extraordinary journey to Mexico on an assignment for the Metropolitan Magazine. For four months, he was embedded with Pancho Villas army during the Mexican Revolution, witnessing firsthand their victorious battle at Torreón which paved the way to Mexico City. Reeds compelling articles not only gained him national recognition as a war correspondent, but also provided a raw perspective on the struggles of the Mexican peons. A staunch opponent of American intervention, Reed developed a deep admiration for Villa, unlike his feelings for Carranza. These accounts were later compiled into a book titled Insurgent Mexico published in 1914. Drawing from a firsthand experience, Reed offers an unfiltered view of the revolution that shook Mexico.
