Description






On the cold, dark night of March 9, 1916, Mexican revolutionary
Pancho Villa—el jaguar—and his band of marauders crossed the
border and raided the tiny town of Columbus, New Mexico. It
was a vicious surprise attack, ending with corpses piled in the
streets and psychological wounds that would last a lifetime.
Suspects were rounded up, trials were held, and a virulent
backlash against persons of Mexican origin erupted. General John
“Black Jack” Pershing was told to assemble a small army, head
into Mexico, and get Villa, dead or alive. The last hurrah for
the U.S. cavalry, the “Punitive Expedition” marked America’s
first use of armored tanks, airplanes, and trucks against an
enemy. One of the deputies Pershing would choose was a recent
West Point graduate named George Patton.The expedition brought
the United States and Mexico to the brink of war, but it also
restored greatness to both prey and predator. More than a classic
account of the war for control of the West, The General and the
Jaguar is a brilliant chronicle of obsession and revenge and a
dual portrait of John Pershing and Pancho Villa, two of the
greatest military minds of all time.
