De la sangre a la tinta y el papel: Re-construcción historiográfica de la batalla de Cerro Gordo, 1847. Una propuesta para la nueva historia militar en México.

This article is an analysis of the historiography of the battle of Cerro Gordo. It is intended to see the generalities of the story, as well as the authors who wrote the subject, their enunciation horizons, the importance they give it, and which ones are available to know the battle. At the end of this historiographic balance, it is established that some current works have reused an almost invariable narrative form, having as their origin a single story. Therefore, a methodological tool provided by historian John Keegan is proposed, called: "the piece of battle". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
