Lorenzo Garza "El Ave de las Tempestades"
by Alejandro A. Arredondo Maldonado | Editorial Oficio | ISBN 9786070156632
Biography of Mexican matador Lorenzo Garza Arrambide (1909–1978), nicknamed "El Ave de las Tempestades" ("The Bird of Storms") for his volatile, all-or-nothing style in the ring — celebrated on triumphant afternoons, notorious for his clashes with authorities on bad ones. Written by his nephew, Alejandro A. Arredondo Maldonado, an engineer and longtime taurine historian who has led cultural and journalistic circles dedicated to Garza's legacy since the 1990s.
Drawing on decades of research, the author covers Garza's career through his own declarations, the recollections of old aficionados and period journalists, statistics, chronology, and personal family history — Arredondo Maldonado is Garza's great-nephew through his father's first-cousin relationship to the matador.
Pages 529–622 present an extensive photo section, both full color and black-and-white, printed on glossy, quality paper.
Paperback, Spanish language.
