Introduction : the original "fresh Mex" -- Ch. 1. The butcher trades -- Ch. 2. The Porfirian jungle -- Ch. 3. The Terrazas trust -- Ch. 4. The Popo challenge -- Ch. 5. The sausage rebellion -- Conclusion : fajitas on the Zocalo.

"Through a detailed examination of meat provisioning, this book illuminates the process of industrialization in the final two decades of the Porfirio Diaz dictatorship and the popular origins of the Revolution of 1910 in Mexico City. Archival sources from Mexico and the United States provide a unique perspective on high-level Porfirian negotiations with foreign investors. The book also examines revolutionary resistance, including strikes, industrial sabotage, and assassination attempts on the foreign managers. Unlike the meatpacking "Jungle" of Chicago, Mexican butchers succeeded in preserving their traditional craft."--Jacket.
