Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a holiday so popular that in the United States it draws larger crowds than here in the United States. About half a million people turn out for the annual event in Los Angeles alone, but exactly what is everybody celebrating? They’re there for the music - and the half-priced margaritas - but if you ask around, you won’t find many people who can tell you what happened in Mexico on that day. There are very few adult-level books currently on the market about that subject, but readers can now learn how the Mexicans took back their country after a five-year struggle against the French army in this 90,000-word book, Cinco de Mayo: What is Everybody Celebrating? (2nd Ed.)The original 2006 edition has now been upgraded to include color photographs in every chapter and maps to help readers navigate the story. There’s also a new cover which has already won graphics awards for the book design firm that created it. The photos were taken by the author and his wife (who is originally from Mexico City,) during more than 50 years of family visits and travel to as many as 53 cities in Mexico.
