Description: THE HISTORY OF DON FRANCISCO DE MIRAND'S ATTEMPT TO EFFECT A REVOLUTION IN SOUTH AMERICA IN A SERIES OF LETTERS BY A GENTLEMAN WHO WAS AN OFFICER UNDER THAT GENERAL, TO HIS FRIEND IN THE UNITED STATES.Boston: Edward Oliver, 1811. Third edition. Francesco Miranda (c. 1754-1816) was a Spanish-American soldier and adventurer who believed that an independent South America would be more prosperous. Hoping to effect a revolution to that end, he traveled to England to talk with Pitt and to France where he tried to enlist the help of the Girondists. Unfortunately, he found little support from either country or the United States, so he decided to make an attempt at his own expense. In 1800, with the and of the English Admiral Sir A.Cochrane, he made a landing near Caracas and proclaimed the Colombian Republic. The Count of Mont Verde, the Bourbon governor, had little trouble defeating Miranda, stipulating that he be deported to the United States. Miranda ignored the conditions of the stipulation and was moved from dungeon to dungeon. He finally died on July 14, 1816 at Cadiz.
