MIRAMON, MIGUEL (1832-1867)

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 573 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MIC-MOL
MIRAMON, MIGUEL (1832-1867) , Mexican soldier of French extraction, was born in the city of
Mexico
 , on the 29th of September 1832, and shot with the Emperor
Maximilian
  at
Queretaro
  on the 19th of June 1867. While still a student he helped to defend the military
academy
  at Chapultepec against the forces of the United States; and, entering the army in 1852, he rapidly came to the front during the civil wars. It was largely due to Miramon's support of the ecclesiastical party against Alvarez and Comonfort that Zuloaga was raised to the
presidency
 ; and in 1859 he was called to succeed him in that
office
 . Decisively beaten by the Liberals in 186o, he spent some time in Europe advocating, foreign intervention in Mexican affairs; and returned as a partisan of
Maximilian
 . His ability as a soldier was shown by his
double
  defence of Puebla in 1856.
