Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Argentine Republic: Its Physical Features, History, Fauna, Flora, Geology, Literature Commerce
The information contained in the following pages is scattered through numbers of volumes, few of which are even partially in English and many of which are inaccesible to the general reader. A residence of more than twenty years in Argentina has satisfied me that, although a bird of passage may write a critical and highly coloured account of the country after a sojourn of a few days, or even hours - so great is the perspicacity of the globe trotter - such a feat is beyond the powers of one who really knows the land and sympathises with the hopes and aspirations of its sons.
