Francia's Reign of Terror: Being a Sequel to Letters on Paraguay, Volume 1

By John Parish Robertson

"Francia's Reign Of Terror" recounts the early 19th-century history of Paraguay under the dictatorial rule of Jos Gaspar Rodr guez de Francia. This volume, the first of a series, details the observations and experiences of the authors, John Parish Robertson and William Parish Robertson, offering a firsthand account of the political and social climate during Francia's regime. The book explores the oppressive measures, the isolation of Paraguay from the outside world, and the impact of Francia's policies on the Paraguayan people. Through vivid descriptions and personal anecdotes, the Robertsons provide a valuable historical record of a tumultuous period in South American history, shedding light on the complexities of power, governance, and the human spirit under duress.
