Heart of Aztlan

Octavo. 209 pp. More than a novel of social protest, it takes those who have been dispossessed of their land because "the tejano came, the barbed wire came, the new laws came", Along with his Bless Me Ultimata, this work remains a major contribution not only to Chicano literature but to the world of thought of the American dilemma and the underdog under the issue of race and culture. A near fine copy bound in red cloth lettered in gilt, spine lettering gilt, two corners only very slightly bumped, in a near fine color pictorial dust jacket with just a few spots of runbbing to corners and spine ends.
