Hay muchos episodios y personajes poco conocidos por el publico en general en torno a la historia de la guerra de independencia de la actual Colombia contra la corona española. El caso del corsario francés es uno de esos. Aventurero con alma de bandido y lealtades por intereses económicos personales, este personaje participó en diferentes escenarios de la rebelión hispanoamericana contra el rey. Por los años de 1800 a 1830, coincidiendo con las declaraciones y actas de independencia de las colonias ultramarinas de su majestad el rey de España, en el Nuevo Mundo, el mar Caribe se llenó de corsarios. Este "arriesgado pero lucrativo oficio" se convirtió en un terrible azote para el comercio marítimo. "Corsario era el marino soldado que en caso de guerra entre dos Estados, (carta de corso o patente de corso), se dedicaba con autorización de uno de ellos a atacar los barcos mercantes del otro ". No siempre se cumplían estas reglas, pero al menos se cubrían las apariencias. "A los interesados les importaba, por encima de todo, poseer carta de corso para dar, así, un aspecto semilegal a sus rapiñas", escribió Pedro Valle. Las incipientes marinas de los nuevos estados recurrieron a las embarcaciones armadas en corso para defenderse de sus declarados enemigos. El corso y la piratería se pusieron a la orden del día. Durante ocho años tripuló y comandó diversas embarcaciones en las costas de los Estados Unidos, en las islas de las Antillas y en el mar Caribe, en calidad de corsario. Estuvo bajo las órdenes de Andrew Jackson, futuro general de los ejércitos estadounidenses y séptimo presidente de la gran nación del norte. A partir de 1810 hizo de las costas de Nueva Orleans el centro de sus actividades. Cuando los Estados Unidos entraron en guerra con la Gran Bretaña los corsarios franceses tuvieron su mejor momento al conseguir el apoyo de los norteamericanos. En esta época Aury ahorró la suma de 4.500 dólares. Al concluir la guerra, con ese dinero compró una pequeña goleta en la cual izó la bandera francesa Con ella, ya como propietario y teniente, operaba haciéndose llamar "pirata francés". Demandado por violar las leyes norteamericanas, perdió el navío. Después de reclamar sus derechos sólo pudo salvar la mitad del dinero invertido.

Tras declarar su independencia absoluta de España en 1811, Cartagena de Indias se convirtió en epicentro de una lucha marítima sin precedentes. Dirigido por una elite revolucionaria radical e innovadora, el nuevo Estado de Cartagena le abrió sus puertas a mercaderes, marineros, revolucionarios y aventureros de Venezuela, las Antillas, Estados Unidos y Europa. Entre los recién llegados se contaban cientos de corsarios de las islas francesas. Casi todos eran marineros negros, antiguos esclavos o descendientes de esclavos ahora contratados como mercenarios marítimos. Herederos de las tradiciones libertarias e irreverentes del Caribe cimarrón, estos lobos de mar ayudaron a construir y defender la soberanía de Cartagena, atacando embarcaciones españolas en las cercanías de Cuba y estableciendo conexiones marítimas con Haití. Basado en fuentes manuscritas e impresas en español, inglés y francés, este libro cuenta la historia de las tripulaciones variopintas de Cartagena, develando así la dimensión marítima y trasatlántica de las luchas por la independencia hispanoamericana.

Winner of the 2009 Literary Award, sponsored by the International Napoleonic Society/La Societe Napoleonienne Internationale of Montreal, Quebec's Literary Committee Napoleon's last campaign didn't end at Waterloo. After that fateful day on June 1815, hundreds if not thousands of veterans of Napoleon's army emigrated to America. Many went farther south and joined the rebels fighting for independence in the Spanish colonies, from Mexico to Buenos Aires. The Bonapartists roiled the Western World as they sought fortune, fame, and glory in the expanding United States and in the tumultuous Spanish Americas suffering from repression and civil disorder, and even in the states of Europe. They were joined by adventurers from other nations who shared their admiration for the fallen emperor. This is the first full-length examination of the Bonapartists who emigrated from France after Napoleon's defeat and exile, who formed a loose confederation with adventurers and romantics, and who contemplated a new empire in the Western Hemisphere. The scheme had the support and encouragement of the fallen emperor himself and his brother Joseph, former King of Spain, who lived in exile in the United States. Emilio Ocampo has examined archives on three continents and sources in several languages to ferret out the evidence--a monumental task considering that conspirators tried to leave no evidence of their plans, and that a failed plot, like failure in general, leaves few claimants. Ocampo reinterprets Latin American independence as an international event that drew in all the major powers. By illuminating the complex connections between the shattered France of the Bourbon restoration; an England threatened by radical politician inspired by the French Revolution; Napoleon in exile at St. Helena; the United States, where home-grown adventurers and French émigrés alike saw opportunity; and the collapsing Spanish colonial empire, where revolutionaries were allying themselves with the veterans of Napoleon's Grande Armée, Ocampo brings together two bodies of scholarship: Napoleonic history and Latin American independence. He does so by tracing the steps of four of the most fascinating characters of the era: two Britons disaffected with their own government--Lord Thomas Cochrane and Sir Robert Wilson--and two former generals of Napolean's army named Charles Lallemand and Michel Brayer. The Emperor's Last Campaign is a fascinating story, well told, and peopled with all sorts of improbable characters and schemes that perhaps just missed coming to full fruition but that in the process contributed to one of the most important events of the nineteenth century: the breakdown of the Spanish empire in America and the rise of the United States as a world power.

How two French families made—and lost—their fortunes in the brutal plantation culture of pre-revolutionary Haiti. In 1729, Marc-Antoine Lamerenx, a minor French nobleman, set sail for Saint-Domingue. Twenty years later, peasant Jean Mouscardy also made the long and difficult journey to Saint-Domingue. Although the men were not related and had little in common, they hailed from the same Pyrenean town, La Bastide Clairence. In the New World, they both settled in Saint-Martin-du-Dondon, where they made their fortunes growing coffee. After the Haitian slave revolt uprooted them, some of their descendants stayed in Haiti and took part in building the new nation. Others took refuge in France, started businesses in New Orleans, or transferred their slaves and their Haitian experience to new coffee plantations in Cuba. Wealth and Disaster follows the emigrant Lamerenx and Mouscardy families over three generations and various locations across the Caribbean. Pierre Force traces their white and mixed-race descendants from the early-eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth centuries and over decades of comings and goings between their French ancestral town and Saint-Domingue, Cuba, and New Orleans. A chance encounter in a French archive led Force to uncover an epic saga, a fascinating and character-driven story of pirates, revolution, staggering riches, financial ruination, natural disaster, harsh imprisonment, and the rise and fall of the plantation economy. By observing the circulation of a few individuals between the Pyrenees and the Caribbean, Force is able to show how these two worlds became interconnected. Arguing that who emigrated and how depended on one’s position in the Pyrenean house-based system, Force also reveals how capital accumulation in Saint-Domingue relied on Pyrenean networks and how, in turn, wealth acquired in America changed the rules of the game back home. An exciting and accessible history, Wealth and Disaster offers riveting insight into the matrimonial strategies and inheritance customs of French rural society and the resulting choices to emigrate or to stay.

El estudio de las políticas inmigratorias de la Corona española y sus permanencias, así como de los cambios que ocasionó el advenimiento de la República corrobora la presencia de concepciones de antiguo régimen en la cultura colombiana que permearon las leyes inmigratorias y que explican los bajos índices de inmigrantes extranjeros en el siglo XIX, en comparación con otros países latinoamericanos. Esta obra da cuenta de las situaciones que experimentaron los inmigrantes entre fines de la Colonia y comienzos de la República, mostrando su sistemática expulsión del territorio nacional, para quienes, luego de obtenida su ciudadanía no estuvieron dispuestos a renunciar a sus derechos políticos.

El 10 de noviembre de 2020 se cumplieron los doscientos años de la batalla de Ciénaga y la liberación de la ciudad de Santa Marta. Este enfrentamiento fue uno de los más sangrientos y decisivos de la independencia de Colombia, pero así mismo uno de los menos estudiados y por tanto menos conocidos en la historiografía del país. El propósito de esta publicación es contribuir en parte a la recuperación histórica de la batalla de Ciénaga, acontecimiento fundamental en la consecución de la independencia definitiva de las provincias del Caribe colombiano. También se busca dimensionar este hecho en el campo de la disputa simbólica por la memoria de la independencia de Colombia. Por lo tanto, este libro promueve dicho episodio como objeto de estudio y como componente de la enseñanza escolar con mayor amplitud, más allá de los hitos fundacionales de la emancipación política impulsados por la historiografía convencional como son el 20 de julio y el 7 de agosto. La batalla de Ciénaga fue la antesala para la liberación de Santa Marta, donde el ejército patriota derrotó a los realistas, con un saldo trágico de muertes. También se estudia en el contexto del Sitio y toma de Cartagena y la batalla naval del Lago de Maracaibo, ocurridas entre noviembre de 1820 y julio de 1823.

In 1822, the Mary departed Philadelphia and sailed in the direction of the Spanish colony of Puerto Rico. Like most vessels that navigated the Caribbean, the Mary brought together men who had served under a dozen different flags over the years. Unlike most crews, those aboard the Mary were in a different line of commerce: they exported revolution. In addition to rifles and pistols, the Mary transported a box filled with proclamations announcing the creation of the "Republic of Boricua." This imagined republic rested on one principle: equal rights for all, regardless of birthplace, race, or religion. The leaders of the expedition had never set foot in Puerto Rico. And they never would. When we think of the Age of Revolutions, George Washington, Robespierre, Toussaint Louverture, or Simón Bolívar might come to mind. But Rogue Revolutionaries recovers the interconnected stories of now-forgotten "foreigners of desperate fortune" who dreamt of overthrowing colonial monarchy and creating their own countries. They were not members of the political and economic elite; rather, they were ship captains, military veterans, and enslaved soldiers. As a history of ideas and geopolitics grounded in the narratives of extraordinary lives, Rogue Revolutionaries shows how these men of different nationalities and ethnicities claimed revolution as a universal right and reimagined notions of sovereignty, liberty, and decolonization. In the midst of wars and upheavals, the question of who had the legitimacy to launch a revolution and to start a new country was open to debate. Behind the growing power of nation-states, Mongey uncovers a lost world of radical cosmopolitanism grounded in the pursuit of material interests and personal prestige. In demonstrating that these would-be revolutionaries and their fleeting republics were critical to the creation of a new international order, Mongey reminds us of the importance of attending to failures, dead ends, and the unpredictable nature of history.
