The University of Arizona library is amazing...

No joke. That place has so many awesome books I can't take it all in. I found a ton of books on Simon Bolivar and Jose de San Martin.

When I mean a ton, I mean a ton. There are dozens of books in English, Spanish, and French about these men and others and on the South American Wars of Independence.

I've checked out a few books of Simon Bolivar's political writings, as well as books on his military campaigns, complete with plenty of illustrations of battles and army uniforms.

I am definitely pleased.
