About the Book

Published by Floricanto Press this book in Spanish is the most comprehensive illustrated and well-documented biography of César Chávez. It describes his life and strife as a labor and political leader of farmworkers in the California fields of tears. Este importante libro biográfico e ilustrado es publicado por Floricanto Press. Conmemorando el 50 aniversario del gran triunfo de la Huelga de la uva, iniciada el verano de 1965, este libro compagina el estudio de la historia de la Unión de Campesinos con el de la persona de César Chávez. Se divide en dos partes con ocho capítulos. La primera parte, tras evocar cómo César, de niño y adolescente, vivió en carne propia la explotación y el sufrimiento de los campesinos, y de tratar de su forja como gran líder comunitario y laboral, se ocupa de la gesta que llevó a la Unión, bajo su dirección, a lograr algo antes nunca conseguido en la historia del país por los trabajadores campesinos. En total simbiosis con ellos, César devino un héroe nacional, reconocido y admirado mundialmente. En la segunda parte, se historia de cómo, y con sus altibajos, la Unión llegó a un gran ápice a mediados y finales de los años 70. Posteriormente, en un nuevo contexto histórico en que el sindicalismo nacional fue puesto contras las cuerdas, César y el grupo dirigente lucharon por un nuevo rehacer de la Unión, tan hostigada en los años 80. Con su infatigable dinamismo y entrega, César Chávez, en su última década, se mantuvo vivo, para los otros, hasta la muerte. Y el grito liberador de la Unión y de la Causa campesina, "Si se puede", se ha convertido en un grito universal de cuantos luchan contra fuerzas detractoras aparentemente inexpugnables. Víctor Fuentes, profesor emérito de la Universidad de California, en Santa Bárbara, es miembro numerario de la Academia Norteamericana de la Lengua Española y miembro correspondiente de la Real Academia Española. Nacido en Madrid (España), prófugo de la España de Franco en 1954, se doctoró en la Universidad de Nueva York (1964) y desde 1965, enseño en la UCSB. Desde finales de los años 60 y principios de los 70, participó en los inicios del Movimiento Chicano. Ha publicado numerosísimos ensayos en sus distintas áreas de especialización literaria y de cine, y es autor de varios libros, Entre ellos destacan: La marcha al pueblo en las letras españolas (1917-1936), El cántico material y espiritual de César Vallejo, y Buñuel en México. Entre 1995 y 2010, co-editó, junto al gran mexicanista y estudioso de las letras chicanas, don Luis Leal, Ventana Abierta, revista latina de literatura, arte y cultura. Acaba de dar a la estampa, su libro California hispano-mexicana. Una nueva narración histórico-cultural, publicado por la ANLE.
