""Captain of the Andes"" by Margaret H. Harrison is a biography of Jose de San Martin, a military leader who played a crucial role in the liberation of Argentina, Chile, and Peru from Spanish colonial rule in the early 19th century. The book chronicles San Martin's life from his birth in Argentina to his military training in Spain and his eventual return to South America to lead the fight for independence. Harrison provides a detailed account of San Martin's military campaigns, including his legendary crossing of the Andes mountains to surprise the Spanish forces in Chile. The book also delves into San Martin's personal life, including his relationships with his wife and children, and his political beliefs and philosophies. Throughout the book, Harrison emphasizes the importance of San Martin's leadership and strategic thinking in the success of the liberation movements in South America. She also explores the challenges and obstacles that San Martin faced, both on the battlefield and in his personal life. Overall, ""Captain of the Andes"" offers a comprehensive and engaging portrait of one of South America's most important historical figures, and sheds light on the complex political and social landscape of the region during the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
