Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II. B1rth And Early Years Of Juarez: 1806-1847. The lofty Cordillera which traverses the American Continent from Alaska to Cape Horn; the far-famed Andes of the South, and the more familiar Rocky Mountains of the north; is known in Mexico by the name of the Sierra Madre. To the south of the capital the range divides itself into two branches, skirting the Atlantic and the Pacific Coasts respectively; and enclosing in their giant embrace, ere they unite once more near Tehuantepec, the district that is known as the modern State of Oaxaca. The country is wild. The soil is fertile. Wellcultivated valleys nestle amid lofty sierras. On the western slopes the vegetation is tropical; on the heights and table lands of the interior it is that of the temperate zone. The streams that take their rise in the higher regions; the long canadas; * the luxuriant vegetation * Gorges of the green slopes, the mineral wealth of the mountains; the varied charm of the landscape in every direction; all combine to make this southern State one of the richest and most picturesque in the rich and picturesque country of Mexico. And in those distant and secluded valleys, fragrant with the odour of pine trees, there dwelt at the opening of the present century, the remnant of a great historic nation: still maintaining, amid their unconquered mountains, many of the old traditions, together with the ancient language of their race. Long ages before the first Aztec set his foot on the soil of Mexico, before England became a nation on the breaking up of the Heptarchy; further back in the dim and distant ages, when men dream that Atlantis may have bridged over the great chasm between the Straits of Gibraltar and the Carribean Sea, the powerful and ancient nation of...

Maximilian and Carlota
Author: M. M. McAllen
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595341854
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
In this new telling of Mexico’s Second Empire and Louis Napoléon’s installation of Maximilian von Habsburg and his wife, Carlota of Belgium, as the emperor and empress of Mexico, Maximilian and Carlota brings the dramatic, interesting, and tragic time of this six-year-siege to life. From 1861 to 1866, the French incorporated the armies of Austria, Belgium—including forces from Crimea to Egypt—to fight and subdue the regime of Mexico’s Benito Juárez during the time of the U.S. Civil War. France viewed this as a chance to seize Mexican territory in a moment they were convinced the Confederacy would prevail and take over Mexico. With both sides distracted in the U.S., this was their opportunity to seize territory in North America. In 1867, with aid from the United States, this movement came to a disastrous end both for the royals and for France while ushering in a new era for Mexico. In a bid to oust Juárez, Mexican conservatives appealed to European leaders to select a monarch to run their country. Maximilian and Carlota’s reign, from 1864 to 1867, was marked from the start by extravagance and ambition and ended with the execution of Maximilian by firing squad, with Carlota on the brink of madness. This epoch moment in the arc of French colonial rule, which spans North American and European history at a critical juncture on both continents, shows how Napoleon III’s failure to save Maximilian disgusted Europeans and sealed his own fate. Maximilian and Carlota offers a vivid portrait of the unusual marriage of Maximilian and Carlota and of international high society and politics at this critical nineteenth-century juncture. This largely unknown era in the history of the Americas comes to life through this colorful telling of the couple’s tragic reign.
