Synopsis
The role of Spain in the birth of the United States is a little known and little understood aspect of U.S. independence. Through actual fighting, provision of supplies, and money, Spain helped the young British colonies succeed in becoming an independent nation. Soldiers were recruited from all over the Spanish empire, from Spain itself and from throughout Spanish America. Many died fighting British soldiers and their allies in Central America, the Caribbean, along the Mississippi River from New Orleans to St. Louis and as far north as Michigan, along the Gulf Coast to Mobile and Pensacola, as well as in Europe. Based on primary research in the archives of Spain, this book is about United States history at its very inception, placing the war in its broadest international context. In short, the information in this book should provide a clearer understanding of the independence of the United States, correct a longstanding omission in its history, and enrich its patrimony. It will appeal to anyone interested in the history of the Revolutionary War and in Spain's role in the development of the Americas.

    Absolutely love it! Package arrived safely and was securely packaged, protecting it from any damages - very thankful for that! It came as described - brand new and I’m very happy I’m able to write my name on the empty pages. It holds sentimental value. I love the Bible’s from the Precious Moments Company and getting this fulfills my childhood memories. Highly recommend this seller. Would definitely buy from this seller again!

    Just as described! Excellent condition book with no signs of usage. Great value for the money, though I think it is definitely worth more! Book was packaged well and shipped by the seller in a very short amount of time. I will really enjoy reading this book, as General John Brown Gordon is one of my favorite generals! ❤️ He had a very fascinating life before, during, and after the war. Thank you so much! Would definitely order from this seller again!
