Edinburgh to the De Mayo Rising: Consul John Hunter and His Family
No Customer Reviews
This Edinburgh boy was born in 1751 and his family and background are discussed in colourful detail.
He rose to become the British Consul-General in Spain, just as Napoleon made his move against the Iberian Peninsula.
Sir John Hunter's famous description of the Madrid insurrection of 1808 ranks in importance with the emotional content of Goya's painting of this gory event. Hunter's life is a reflection of a violent period in European history.
