Volumen three, Los herederos: 1828-1863

El tercer volumen de los angeles saga cubre el prolongado e inestable nacimiento de los angeles república tras los angeles separación de Venezuela de los angeles Gran Colombia. Años de cambio social, miseria y bandidaje, mientras los caudillos se reparten el poder en una interminable cadena de intrigas y dictaduras. Carlos Augusto se desempeña brevemente como diputado. Sus hijos, los nietos de Roberto, tienen intereses diversos: Carlos Roberto, artista frustrado en Londres, se interesa luego por l. a. tecnología e introduce en Venezuela las primeras máquinas de vapor; Matías abandona l. a. vida monástica en España y regresa a Venezuela, y Guillermo lucha para que los angeles hacienda Altagracia sobreviva a los bandidos y a l. a. sangrienta guerra civil (1859-1863).

El rigor y l. a. coherencia que sustentan los hechos e principles que surcan esta saga no solo demuestran los angeles descomunal investigación que llevo a cabo su autor, sino que atrapan, gracias a l. a. vivacidad de su pluma, aquello que suele quedar fuera de las páginas de los libros de historia: las preocupaciones cotidianas, el amor, el dolor y el olvido, los sueños y desencuentros, las pequeñas alegrías y las necesidades y apariencias de una sociedad que se construyó a base de trabajo, rebeldía, sangre y fuego. l. a. trama de esta minuciosa historia, además, conduce al lector por distintos países y lo lleva al encuentro de figuras de l. a. talla de Miranda, Mirabeau, Condorcet, O'Higgins, Napoleón, Godoy, Hamilton, Iturbide, Fermín Toro, Vargas, Páez, Zamora, Guzmán Blanco y, por supuesto, Simón Bolívar.
