Vida y Hacienda: The Life and Legacy of Dr. Pedro Albizu Campos

VIDA Y HACIENDA: THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF DR. PEDRO ALBIZU CAMPOS is the first biography of the renowned revolutionary leader from Puerto Rico to be written in English. It offers the general history detailed in most accounts, and includes topics not commonly featured in writings on Don Pedro, especially in the English language. Such topics include his early childhood and academic accomplishments, his military studies and training in Harvard's R.O.T.C. program, his 1936 effort to hold a constitutional convention while also on trial for seditious conspiracy, his wife Dr. Laura Meneses de Albizu Campos, and more.
