Sobral Pinto, "The Conscience of Brazil"

Lavalle, héroe argentino y americano por antonomasia, es el prototipo de militar que dedica su vida a la patria y muere en el cumplimiento del que cree su deber.

Renuente a instalarse en aquel apartado lugar del mundo, procura el auxilio de su hermano, el futuro conde de Premio Real, quien hace oídos sordos a su pedido de ayuda para evitar el traslado. La...
