David Curtis DeForest and the Revolution of Buenos Aires

Hardcover met stofomslag. Keen, Benjamin. David Curtis DeForest and the revolution of Buenos Aires. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1947. 186 blz. Boek in goede staat.

The life of David Curtis DeForest richly documents the contribution of the United States to the movement of Spanish-American emancipation. His colorful career, spanning a quarter-century of revolutionary upheavels along the shores of the Rio de la Plata, shows how North American ideological influence and illegal military assistance, and the astute diplomacy of the United States government, helped to inspire, sustain, and bring to a successful conclusion the Argentine struggle for independence. It demonstrates how numerous and varied were the contacts between the United States and Buenos Aires in this formative period of inter-American relations. These historical lessons emerge from a study of the life of one of the greatest of Yankee adventurers, recorded in his own vigorously written journals and letters.
