In this volume of essays on the life and legacy of Simón Bolívar, a distinguished group of historians takes a fresh look at the impact of "the Liberator" as warrior, political thinker and leader, internationalist, continentalist, reformer, and revolutionary. A balanced yet critical appraisal of Bolívar's role in the Spanish American wars of independence, this in-depth collection offers a persuasive explanation of why the Bolívarian legend and cult has persisted.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
