Title: Gran Bretaña y la Guerra de la Triple Alianza
First published: 1983
Description: A key book on the underlying causes of the War of the Triple Alliance(1864-1870), which opposed Paraguay to Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay, and roughly re-defined most of the national border  in the heart of South America. It is based on a thorough research in British archives and on the relevant and previously unexplored European bibliography. It presents for the first time reliable economic data on the state and orientation of the Paraguayan economy, and the second part reviews the coverage of the war by the “The Times” of London. It allows a much more coherent evaluation of the different arguments invoking an active role of Great Britain in the origins and development of the military conflict as such.
