Letters Written From Colombia (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book documents the travels of the author from Caracas, Venezuela, to Bogotá, Colombia through letters written home which capture the state of the young nation as it transitioned from colony to a self-governing republic, the local color, and the beauty of the land. The author provides a detailed description of the landscape, people, customs, and events he encountered along his journey. Along the way, he meets South American leaders such as Simon Bolivar and José Antonio Páez, describing their roles in the revolution and their visions for the new republic. Through these observations, he paints a vivid and engaging portrait of the complex political, social, and economic changes roiling South America in the wake of independence.
