Eulogio Gillow, Carlota, the Iturbides, and the English Mini-Castle

One of the most moving and curious things about having written a book about the 19th century is that, on many an occasion, I am reminded that it wasn't all that long ago. CONTINUE READING at my other blog, Maximilian ~ Carlota.

[The other blog, Maximilian ~ Carlota, is where I share my research on Mexico's Second Empire / French Intervention which I did for my novel, The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire. I have so many things in my files... and I am still learning... I'll be updating that blog on Tuesdays, until further notice.]

Reading Galleys

The Spanish translation of my novel, The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire (Unbridled Books, 2009, paperback 2010), will be out late this September, translated by Mexican poet and novelist Agustín Cadena as El último príncipe del Imperio Mexicano. The publisher is Random House-Mondadori. I'm going over the galleys this week, but look for the Tuesday update to the new Maximilian ~ Carlota blog tomorrow. More anon.
