Set against the backdrop of the Mexican Revolution, the author, Mariano Azuela, brings a unique perspective as both a physician and a participant in the conflict. His firsthand experiences as a doctor for Pancho Villa's army inform his narrative in "The Underdogs," which explores the struggles of the marginalized during this tumultuous period.
