ANDRES MARTIN, Juan Ramón de. The Royalist Reaction to Insurgent Conspiracies on the Texas Border (1809-1813). Secuencia [online]. 2008, n.71, pp.33-62. ISSN 2395-8464. https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i71.1042.
This article explores the way the principal royalist authorities reacted in order to prevent the introduction of insurgents into New Spain via American Louisiana and Spanish Texas during the period from 1809, a year after the French invasión of Spain, until 1813, when the Texan insurgents were defeated in Campos de Medina. It also seeks to examine the connections the insurgents had established from the interior'of the United States to the Eastern Internal Provinces of New Spain and the scope and effectiveness of this insurgent nerwork. The aurhor highlights the key role played, among the royalist authorities, by Plenipotentiary Minister of Spain in the United States, Luis de Onís and General Commander of the Internal Provinces of the East, General Joaquín de Arredondo, in dismantling this insurgent network. The former used diplomacy and epis-tolary communication, while the latter used military and strategic action.
