Summary: "Zumalacárregui" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around the character of Zumalacárregui, a carlist general during the Carlist Wars in Spain, depicting his military campaigns and the complex socio-political landscape of the time.

The opening of "Zumalacárregui" introduces the reader to the ongoing military endeavors of the eponymous character, who finds success in his campaign while simultaneously engaging in the brutalities of conflict. As he invades the Ribera de Navarra with his disciplined troops, Galdós vividly portrays the tactics and mindset of a man driven both by ambition and the necessity of harsh leadership during wartime. We are introduced to the grim fate of a captured alcalde, Don Adrián Ulibarri, who prepares for his execution while reflecting on his past and the complexities of human relationships, notably with his former lover Saloma.
