Synopsis
When Gloriana agreed to cohost a formal dinner with her uncle, she did not know she was about to discover a plot to overtake her country. The pampered and sheltered young heiress soon found herself squeezed by several vises: Europe and Mexico, Church and state, liberal and conservative. The battle at Puebla on the Cinco de Mayo is by all accounts a minor skirmish, but one which electrified he world. That Napoleon's army should be routed by a ragtag band of ill-equipped campesinos was astounding. By unifying Mexicans across all cultural and racial lines, it gave them a bonding national identity.The account is told through the perspectives of the indio, mestizo, criollo and foreigner. Glimpsed by some historical figures, the The Cry of Gloriana recounts the events and conditions leading up to the battle resulting in an unsettled homogeny. Gloriana matures from a fickle beauty to a noble woman. To reconcile her feelings, Gloriana resolves alternatives between Europeans and her countrymen, the privileged and the deprived, and the romantic overtures from a French soldier and a guerillero. It culminates at the battle with her rallying cry.

- r***r (2961)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.Rethinking Investing: A Very Short Guide to Very Long-Term Investing by Charles (#396183075510)
- e***_ (15)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
