Through images and poetry, Escaramuza looks at how the tradition continues in the United States today, and what it means for the identity of its Mexican and Mexican-American female practitioners. The book considers the roles of family, immigration and gender dynamics within escaramuza and Charrería culture in the US, drawing historical parallels to the 'soldaderas' who fought in the Mexican Revolution and inspired the escaramuza tradition. The work combines photographic portraits by the artist, with poetry by ire'ne lara silva and Angelina Sáenz.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Constance Jaeggi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1915423961\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915423962\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gost Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/20\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Constance Jaeggi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47580082471167,"sku":"9781915423962","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b4ce456-46d6-455a-83b3-456572d458e8.jpg?v=1763878675","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/escaramuza-constance-jaeggi-9781915423962","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
