Bev (Beveditions) | 1 comments Historian Denis Smith Brings Little-Known Liberator of Spanish America to Life in General Miranda's Wars: Turmoil and Revolt in Spanish America, 1750-1816

For 30 years the Venezuelan Francisco de Miranda plotted to free Spain’s colonies in the New World. Miranda lived a fabled life as an adventurer and mercenary soldier, supported by powerful patrons in England, France, the United States, and Russia.

In this work of creative nonfiction, award-winning Canadian author Denis Smith tells a compelling story of intrigue and misadventure, posing questions about empire, diplomacy and the quest for freedom which continue to resonate today.
