br. Nei Caraibi e in America Latina Sandino è un vero mito, il suo nome viene ricordato accanto a quelli di Emiliano Zapata e di José Martí. Anche l'Europa riscoprì le sue gesta durante i giorni della rivoluzione in Nicaragua di quarant'anni fa. Paulo Cannabrava Filho, oggi direttore di una combattiva testata brasiliana di San Paolo, continua a spendersi per l'autodeterminazione dei popoli latino-americani e contro l'imperialismo. Questo libro ci restituisce idee, aspirazioni, progetti di chi intese seguire la strada di Sandino in Nicaragua, descrivendo la storia, il dramma e la speranza di una rivoluzione che - ricorda l'autore nell'introduzione scritta appositamente per questa edizione - nel potere difeso a oltranza da Daniel Ortega e sua moglie Rosario Murillo, mostra laceranti limiti e insanabili contraddizioni.

87208Bexley Heath Thomas Jenkins n.d. after 1853. . First edition. 8vo. 30pp. original pale blue printed wrappers stapled light spotting to covers a fine copy.<br /> Rare. COPAC lists Cambridge University only.<br /><br />In 1848 Captain Granville G. Loch led a boat expedition up the Saint Juan de Nicaragua. It consisted of the boats of his own ship the Alarm and the Vixen and its object was to punish a certain Colonel Sales of the Nicaraguan army who after carrying off two British subjects and committing various outrages had fortified himself in the town of Serapaqui situated about thirty miles up the river. Captain Loch commenced the ascent with twelve boats carrying 260 officers and men accompanied by the consul in his own boat. Passing over numerous downfalls and rapids by immense exertions the party at the end of seventy-two hours got almost in sight of the fort. Unhappily the consul and a friend accompanying him fell overboard during the night and both were drowned. The next morning on approaching the fort the boats were received by a tremendous fire from it and from both banks of the river which riddled them with shot broke nearly half the oars killed two men and severely wounded Mr Turner a midshipman and several others. Notwithstanding this pulling on against the strong current for an hour and forty minutes they got past the batteries and then dropping down to the landing-place sprang on shore and the crews uttering a loud cheer stormed the stockades. The Nicaraguans withstood them for some time but at length giving way fled into the forest leaving twenty dead behind them while twice that number were wounded and two officers and seven men captured. The boats returned down the river and arrived safely on board the ships. Taken from: How Britannia Came to Rule the Waves.<br /><br />Mention is made in the pamphlet of Captain Loch's death in 1853 whilst on duty in Burma.<br /> Bexley Heath, Thomas Jenkins, n.d. [after 1853]. unknown
