An attractive copy. $250. First edition. This book reproduces the text of a speech given by military leader Don Rafael Vasco del Campo shortly upon his elevation by the King of Spain to the Presidency of Granada's Supreme Court of Justice. Don Vasco who distinguished himself in the service of the Spanish Crown in Mexico proclaims his humility before the office of his charge never before entrusted to a military man and invokes education as an antidote to envy hate revenge and thoughts of theft lies and deception. He also challenges the need for capital punishment and other legal injustices. During his short-lived presidency over Granada's highest court the region enjoyed peace and a flowering of the arts which ended with Napoleon's invasion of Spain and the subsequent popular uprisings against the Spanish Crown.
