Since I had read the recent version of the Zorro tale by Chilean author Isabel Allende published in 2006, and watched all of the movies on TV and even the recent Antonio Banderas versions, I decided to go back to the past and read the original. I can't deny it. I love the Zorro tale, a swashbuckling, courageous defender of the weak and helpless. So now to review the original published in 1919.
