Francisco Espoz y Mina (1781-1836). Spanish military. Leader of the guerrillas of Navarre during the Spanish War of Independence (1808-1814). He fought on the Isabeline army in the First Carlist War (1833-1840), being the most responsible for the fight in the north of Spain against the Carlists. The French Revolution of 1830, with liberal and anti-Bourbon leanings, led Espoz y Mina to organise a revolutionary front in France to act in Spain. For several months he trained a large number of Spanish exiles who had taken refuge in England. On 18 October 1830, he attempted to penetrate Basque territory against the regime of Ferdinand VII and re-establish the liberal Constitution, but he returned to France after his failure. General Mina haranguing the liberal emigrants before entering Spain. Chromolithography. "Historia de la Revolución Española" (desde la Guerra de la Independencia a la Restauración en Sagunto), by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez. Volume II. Published in Barcelona, 1891.
