The book recounts the author's eyewitness observations and personal experiences during the tumultuous period of the French intervention in Mexico, specifically under the reign of Emperor Maximilian I. It provides a detailed narrative of the political and military conflicts that ensued, including insights into the motivations and actions of key historical figures. The opening of the text introduces us to the author’s intention to present a personal perspective on the significant events surrounding the French intervention in Mexico. Stevenson highlights her role as an eyewitness, emphasizing the complexity of the characters involved, including the motivations of political leaders, soldiers, and the affected populace. She expresses her desire to capture the essence of those involved rather than viewing them merely as historical figures and provides a backdrop of the political climate in France, mentioning discussions around the potential benefits of establishing a monarchy in Mexico.
