Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Journey From Buenos Ayres, Through the Provinces of Cordova, Tucuman, and Salta, to Potosi, Thence by the Deserts of Caranja to Arica, and Subsequently to Santiago De Chili and Coquimbo, Undertaken on Behalf of the Chilian and Peruvian Mining Association, Vol. 1 of 2 If these various raining companies should produce no other benefit, they at least contributed to make known to us geographically the interior of a vast continent, its vegetable and mineral productions, and the manners and habits of a people with whom it had been the policy of their former masters we should be, if at all, but superficially acquainted. The writer of the present volumes is, nevertheless, of opinion that this is not all the benefit which this country will eventually derive from the recent associations. He ventures to differ from those who decry in toto the attempts made to employ British capital in restoring to South America the power of producing her great staple return of the precious metals.
