This is the diary of a young Austrian army officer who went off as
a mercenary to Mexico as part of an ill-judged campaign by the
European powers to impose a settlement on Mexico's internal
political conflicts and to establish Maximillian as Emperor. Unlike
many of his companions, he escaped execution to return to Austria.
The diary reveals a sympathetic and appealing character, and sheds
light on a disastrous campaign. The translator and editor, Gordon
Etherington-Smith, is a descendant of the Pitner family.
