Product Description
Simon Bolivar, liberator of five nations from Spanish tutelage, is one of the towering public figures that our hemisphere has produced. As a soldier he gave warfare in America a new dimension by establishing that makeshift forces, if imaginatively led and with grass roots support, could triumph over better drilled, better equipped external armies. Some internationalists credit Bolivar with planting the seeds of the League of Nations and the United Nations.
