South America.
American Book. .60
In this good geographical reader the children are taken "upon a
personally conducted tour through the most characteristic parts of the
South American continent.... The book has the merit of being written
from original sources of information. It comprises the observations of
the author gathered in a trip of more than twenty-five thousand miles
along the routes herein described. Most of the descriptions were
written on the ground, and a very large number of the photographs were
made by the author especially for this book."
