Abstract

Based on the donation by the Manuel Arango Foundation of the central document that reproduces this work in favor of the Universidad Iberoamericana, this prestigious academic and publishing house has organized a very special edition for the memory and, why not, intellectual claim of a piece of Mexican land: the remote and legendary Isla de la Pasión or Clipperton. Its first pages testify to Don Manuel Arango Arias's curiosity and efforts to rescue the little-known dramatic history of this island, a story that we had also lost a century after the dramatic episode of its delivery to France and that expedition of the Captain Ramón Arnaud and the soldiers and families that accompanied him. The captain's own daughter wrote about the latter in 1982 and Arango Arias produced the documentary Clipperton in 2003. Passion Island. A story of honor, ambition and death.
