History of Paraguay is an extraordinary book about this Republic of South America, the Paraguay. Although it was written in the XIX century, this book is fundamental to understand the roots of the Paraguayan War (1865-1870) as well as the character of South American nations. Its author, Mr. Charles Ames Washburn, was a US Minister in this country from 1861 to 1868, so he was an eyewitness to tragic events that take place in Paraguay at that time. It is a fundamental book for those who want to better understand the soul of South America. This second volume covers from the begining of the war to the end of it, focusing in the drama lived by Washburn during his term in Paraguay.

Not illustrated. 1871 edition. Excerpt: ... APPENDIX. CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN REAR-ADMIRAL DAVIS AND PRESIDENT LOPEZ. Rear-Admiral Davis to President Lopez. United States Flag-ship Wasp, (fourth-rate, ) In front of Angostura, Paraguay, December 3, 1868. Sir, -- I have the honor to inform your Excellency that I have arrived in front of Angostura, having on board his Excellency General M. T. McMahon, the Minister of the United States to the Republic of Paraguay. As an indispensable preliminary step to the presentation, by General McMahon to your Excellency, of his credential letters, I have to request that Messrs. Bliss and Masterman, the persons arrested and detained in Asuncion while under the protection and attached to the Legation of the previous United States Minister, be restored to the authority of the United States flag. Knowing that before the occurrence of this arrest and detention it was the earnest desire of the government of the United States to continue, under the existing circumstances, its friendly relations with the Republic of Paraguay, -- a desire sufficiently manifested by the prompt appointment of General McMahon, -- it is my hope that your Excellency will hasten to remove the only obstacle which stands in the way of these relations. I have the honor to be, with the highest respect, your Excellency's most obedient servant, C. H. Davis, Rear-Admiral commanding the Naval Forces of the United States in the South Atlantic. His Excellency Marshal Don Francisco Solano Lopez, President of the Republic of Paraguay. VOL. II. 39 Rear-Admiral Davis to President Lopez. United States Flag-ship Wasp, (fourth-rate.)

It is only a dark level, a gloomy stationary scene; and the only figures that appear on it, save only the sombre Dictator, whose presence clouds it all, are the victims whose clanking chains we shall see and whose death-groans we shall hear. The country was reduced so entirely to the will of one man, that, having no foreign policy, no connections abroad, no change within, and no other incidents of interest than the arrest and execution of suspected or obnoxious persons, the country had no history except the cruelties of Francia. For all the rest it was the same one day, one week, month, or year as another. There was neither social intercourse nor domestic confidence. Nor did it seem that a change would ever come. The tyrant lived much beyond the allotted age of man, and to the last evinced the same inflexible love of persecution and the same pleasure in causing fear and...
