Description:

"Éramos cuarenta y ocho hombres sin patria y sin uniforme;  esperábamos encontrar ambas cosas más allá de las líneas mexicanas."

Ésta es la historia real de John Riley y de sus hombres irlandeses que, en 1846, peleaban en las filas de los Estados Unidos  durante la guerra fronteriza con México. Ellos, que habían escapado del hambre y de la opresión en su Irlanda natal, no pudieron  permanecer sumisos ante la carnicería que su ejército cometía para expulsar a los mexicanos de sus tierras. Ésta es la leyenda de  unos desertores que se cambiaron de bando para combatir la  injusticia y formaron el Batallón de San Patricio, una unidad de artillería del ejército de la República mexicana.

Ésta es la recreación de la infamia cometida contra Riley y los suyos, juzgados por alta traición, condenados y marcados a fuego en la  mejilla con una D, de desertores, y también es una apasionante novela de perdedores, con toda la épica y el rigor histórico de Pino  Cacucci.

ENGLISH DESCRPTION

"We were 48 men without uniform or country; we were hoping to find both things beyond the Mexican lines."

This is the true story of John Riley and his Irish men who, in 1846, fought alongside US soldiers during the border war with Mexico.

These men, who had escaped hunger and oppression in their native Ireland, could not remain passive in the face of the carnage that their army committed to expel the Mexicans from their land.

This is the story of defectors who changed sides to combat injustice and formed St. Patrick's Battalion, an artillery unit in the Mexican Republic's army; the recreation of the disgrace committed against Riley and his men, tried for high treason, convicted and branded on the cheek with a D for deserter. It is also a thrilling novel of losers, with all of Pino Cacucci's epic and historical rigor.
