520 _aDr. Alberto G. Garcia was a pioneering open-heart surgeon, Maderista in the Mexican Revolution, brave opponent to the Ku Klx Klan, pathbreaking journalist, civil rights activist, anti-facist, astrologer, yogi, siddha, and father and grandfather to a remarkable family. This biography of his life offers a unique glimpse into the Mexican Revolution, the long and ongoing relationship between Mexico and Texas, and an array of revolutionaries, occultist and saints and their antagonists in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Austin, Texas, and Mexico.
