Descriere
The sources in this volume focus on Britain’s moral, financial, and diplomatic interventions and ambitions in Latin America. It begins during the wars of independence spanning 1810-1825. The collected texts variously portray British anticipation of, participation in, and pursuit of national interest amidst revolutions in Latin America.
