"A 'blood and thunder' narrative of Lord Cochrane's career in Brazil and, more broadly, of the activities of British sailors in the Brazilian independence movement and in the postindependence consolidation of central control. Based on archives in Brazil and Great Britain. Generally, the employment of mercenaries in these conflicts served the Empire well"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
