His power base rested on ownership of land and control of armed bands. He was the rival of constitutional rulers and the precursor of modern dictators.

Lynch traces theorigins and development of the caudillo tradition, and sets it in its contemporary context. His scholarly analysis of this central theme in the history of Spanish America is underpinned by detailed case studies of four major caudillos: Juan Manuel de Rosas (Argentina), Jos� Antonio P�ez(Venezuela), Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna (Mexico), and Raphael Carrera (Guatemala).
