CUBA Y AMERICA: (Jose Marti Photograph)
Galiano 79, Habana M. Roman 1902 CLOTHBOUND Very Good; Blue cloth, title on front cover in gilt lettering.... Illustrated by Copiously Illustrated
4to 11" - 13" tall; Blue cloth, title on front cover in gilt lettering. Marbled endpapers. With the binder's lable on pastedown: "P. Fernandez y Ca. , Obispo 17, Habana". Tipped in folded newspaper clipping "En el Senado", Viernes 27 (de Noviembre1902? ) . Full page portrait of Tomas Estrada Palma, Presidente de La Republica de Cuba. ["A glorificar la Revolucion Cubana: a rendir homenaje a la Republica de Cuba que se constituye el 20 de Mayo de 1902: a contribuir a la union y la harmonia de todos los elementos de su pueblo: a dar sentida expresion de gratitud a los Estados Unidos se dedica la presente edicion de "Cuba y America"]. Portrait drawing of Jose de la Luz y Caballero, portrait of Carlos Manuel de Cespedes, Morales Lemus, Jose Antonio Cortina, JOSE MARTI, Dr. Betances, portrait drawing of Dr. Luis Estevez y Romero, and finally, a 9 page presentation of the NEW CONSTITUTION, illustrated by portrait vignettes in the margins of those men who were involved in the writing of it. Minor wear to the extremities, rear joint starting, otherwise quite an impressive volume. Works of this nature are considered "patrimonio" today and cannot be taken from the country, thus are seldom seen in the United States. A fine remembrance of the beginnings of modern Cuba. Copiously illustrated with smaller photographs of those who helped start this new nation after the expulsion of the Spaniards.

Calf spine (about half lacking) , otherwise in very good condition. From Wikipedia: "La Reforma" was a period halfway through the 19th century in the history of Mexico that was characterized by liberal reforms and the transformation of Mexico into a nation state. Notable liberal politicians in the reform period include Benito Juarez, Juan Alvarez, Ignacio Comonfort, Miguel Lerdo de Tejada, Sebastian Lerdo de Tejada, Melchor Ocampo, Jose Maria Iglesias and Santos Degollado. The Reforma is usually considered to have begun with the overthrowing and the removal of Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana in the Revolution of Ayutla in 1855." This sequence of "El Heraldo" newspapers which we offer here covers this pivotal period in Mexico's history.
