Beschreibung:
A native of Havana, Antonio Rafael de la Cova teaches history, African American studies, and Latin American anthropology at the University of South Carolina Columbia. He holds a Ph.D. in history from West Virginia University and is the author of two books published by the University of South Carolina Press, Cuban Confederate Colonel: The Life of Ambrosio José Gonzales and The Moncada Attack: Birth of the Cuban Revolution, and numerous essays on nineteenth-century military filibusters.
Henry Theodore Titus (1822-1881) was the quintessential adventurer, soldier of fortune, and small-time entrepreneur, a man for whom any frontier was an opportunity for advancement. In this first full-length biography of Titus, Antonio Rafael de la Cova reveals a man whose life and adventures offer glimpses into nineteenth-century America not often examined.
