Description: Commemorative edition celebrating 6 decades of FISAC (Fomento de Investigación y Cultura Superior, A.C. Patronato Económico y de Desarrollo of the Universidad Iberamericana, the independent entity, the real owners since 1954 of the furniture and equipment of their facilities, which when left in different hands allowed the Jesuit academic campus to devote themselves completely to education. The book, "Santa Rosa de Viterbo" takes us through the eyes of a Novohispanic engraver: Joseph de Nava. It leads us in the sequence of experiences and actions in defense of faith in the 13th century Saint Rose of Viterbo, a young Italian woman, poor under human criteria and exceptional in the eyes of God, so much so that she preached wisely to convince the schismaticts, survived unscathed the death by fire execution for the heretics, and who died two months before her 18th birthday, with an unimaginable history of miracles. The second volume titled "Un viaje a México" is a new edition of a book written in 1878 and published in 1880, a copy from the holdings of the Francisco Xavier Clavijero Library, and part of its bibliographic collections dating from the 15th century. Within the travel literature is an exceptional piece for its text and 20 original photographs. It is the narration in eight letters addressed to a relative in England, accompanied by drawings, photographs and objects, describing experiences, feelings and opinions of a group of travelers, four Canadian ladies and an English gentleman, lawyer, politician and writer Henry Brecher.
