Letter from Charles de Gaulle to the Rev. Michael D. Jones, 21 April 1865 [image 1 of 6]

Description

Charles de Gaulle (poet) writes to Michael D. Jones from Vaugirard, Paris, to pledge his support to the movement to establish a Welsh settlement in Patagonia, the news of which has 'excited also the deepest sympathy' amongst the American-Bretons. Nevertheless, he is disappointed that the leaders of the Patagonian movement have accepted the sovereignty of the Argentine Republic when acquiring land for the proposed settlement.
