Abstract:
Jose de San Martin (1778-1850) was an enigmatic figure - a revolutionary and a conservative, a soldier and an intellectual, a taciturn man who nevertheless was able to inspire the peoples of South America to follow his armies and accept his battle strategies. This work focuses on San Martin and on the story of Spanish America's revolutionary wars.
