Resumen
RAMOS DIAZ, Martín y VAZQUEZ BARKE, Gabriela. Letters from a Porfirian General: Family Correspondence of Ignacio Bravo, 1889-1918. Secuencia [online]. 2012, n.83, pp.119-144. ISSN 2395-8464.
Ignacio Bravo's family correspondence reveals little-known aspects of the early years of Quintana Roo, certain episodes of the Mexican Revolution and President Victoriano Huerta's exile in Texas. Above all, General Bravo's personal letters trace the lives of a family of military men in the late 19th and early 20th century in the Mexico of Porfirio Díaz. The article reveals the discovery of hundreds of pieces of Bravo's personal correspondence and provides an anthology of the information that uses new data to explain recurrent events in the regional historiography of the Mexican southeast, such as the pacification of the Maya, the creation of the federal territory of Quintana Roo on the Mexico-Belize border and the hostile, jungle environment for the pioneers who settled in this far-off region.
