Overview

«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 Fronterisa 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 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 DESCRIPTION

“We were forty-eight men with no country or uniform. We hoped to find both on the other side of the Mexican lines.”

This is the true story of John Riley and the other Irishmen who started off fighting for the United States during the Mexican American War of 1846. Ultimately, however, having fled famine and oppression in their European homeland, they could not stay silent at the brutality of US forces determined to expel Mexican citizens from disputed territory. Driven by their sense of justice, a group of these men deserted the US side and formed the legendary St. Patrick’s Battalion, an artillery unit fighting for Mexico.  
 
With epic storytelling and historical rigor, Pino Cacucci recounts the cruel fate of Riley and his men, who ultimately fought a losing battle and were court-martialed for high treason, branded on the cheek with the letter “D” for deserter.
