The Doris Z. Stone Latin American Library and Research Center at Tulane University is pleased to announce the Francisco Morazán Papers, a new digital collection available via the Tulane University Digital Library:
https://library.search.tulane.edu/discovery/collectionDiscovery?vid=01TUL_INST:Tulane&collectionId=81504812230006326

Drawn from the personal archive of Francisco Morazán (1792–1842), often called the “Simón Bolívar of Central America,” the collection documents the life and work of the second and final president of the Federal Republic of Central America. Dating mainly from 1830 to 1842, the papers include correspondence, personal documents, and records of business and financial activity, offering insight into the political, economic, and social transformations that shaped Central America during a pivotal era.

The digital publication of this collection was a collaborative effort between the Doris Stone LAL and Digital Initiatives at Tulane University Libraries.

Please contact us at [email protected] with any questions about the collection.
