Summary
Reveals how Diego de la Vega became the masked man we all know so well. Born in southern California late in the 18th century, he is a child of two worlds. Diego de la Vega's father is an aristocratic Spanish military man turned landowner; his mother, a Shoshone warrior. Sent to Barcelona for a European education, Diego joins "La Justicia," a secret underground resistance movement devoted to helping the powerless and the poor. Between California and Barcelona, the persona of Zorro is formed, a great hero is born and the legend begins. Some descriptions of sex and some violence. Bestseller. 2005
