"Por demasiado tiempo, para muchos de nosotros, sobre todo en Occidente, el mundo ha sido demasiado humano. Tenemos la necesidad de aprender de otros entornos basados en relaciones distintas a la división entre naturaleza y cultura, para así forjar imaginarios que nos ayuden en la tarea de estar compenetrados con el mundo” (Harriet Hawkins)
Arturo Prat
Esta reedición bibliográfica, recrea con el particular estilo del autor, el mundo que le tocó vivir a Prat, la entonces composición de la sociedad nacional, su infancia, su adolescencia, su integración a la marina y con ésta última, nos va relatando su actividad embarcado, su vida personal (matrimonio e hijos), el enorme esfuerzo desarrollado para convertirse en el primer abogado de la Armada de Chile y por último, el sacrificio y con ello el salto a la gloria.
Andean Tragedy
The year 1879 marked the beginning of one of the longest, bloodiest conflicts of nineteenth-century Latin America. The War of the Pacific pitted Peru and Bolivia against Chile in a struggle initiated over a festering border dispute. The conflict saw Chile's and Peru's armored warships vying for control of sea lanes and included one of the first examples of the use of naval torpedoes.
A History of the British Presence in Chile
This book sets out to narrate the contributions to and influence on the history of Chile that British visitors and immigrants have had, not as bystanders but as key players, starting in 1554 with the English Queen 'Bloody Mary' becoming Queen of Chile, and ending with the decline of British influence following the Second World War.

Andrés Bello
This is the first book-length biography of Andrés Bello, the nineteenth-century Latin American intellectual, to appear in English. Bello was also a poet, a literary critic, and an influential statesman whose contributions to nation-building and Spanish American identity are widely recognized across the region. This work provides a comprehensive interpretation of Bello's work, gives an account of Bello's life based on new information from archives in four countries, and sheds new light on this critical period in Latin American history.
