Kathryn Blair, author of

In the Shadow of the Angel

Described by one reviewer as the Gone with the Wind of Mexico, Kathryn Blair's book is the riveting true story of a remarkable woman, Antonieta Rivas Mercado. Her story takes the reader deep inside the Mexican Revolution of 1910 and its aftermath.

This is a true story of an extraordinary Mexican woman of the twenties. Published in Spanish in 1995, it continues to be a bestseller, acclaimed both for its historical and literary value.

Antonieta Rivas Mercado was the daughter of the architect of Mexico’s Independence Monument, popularly known as "The Angel." She was born in 1900 and committed suicide in Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, in 1931. Heiress of a fortune and brilliant, Antonieta was as conflictual and passionate as Mexico itself.
