This book examines the Spanish response, military, economic and
social, to the anti-imperial revolutions of Latin America in the
early nineteenth century. History has for the most part
concentrated on the heroic careers of the great liberators of
America: but what did Spaniards themselves think of Simon Bolivar
and his fellow revolutionaries? How did they view the events in
America? What policies were adopted, what were their effects on
Spanish trade and the merchants who conducted it, and what action
did Spain take to meet American demands or to suppress them? It is
with these and many related questions that this study is concerned.
Analysing a broad spectrum of Spanish opinion which reflects the
views of politicians, diplomats, merchants, journalists, the
military and others, Professor Costeloe explains how Spaniards
responded to revolution and how in retrospect, in the aftermath of
defeat, they regarded the end of their nation's long role as a
major imperial power.
