A Protestant missionary arrives in Buenos Ayres in 1889, in time for a revolution, and sets out on horseback through Argentina and its neighbours. He describes criollo villages, Paraguay’s history, fever and hunger on the trail, and visits to remote tribes, writing from a strongly Protestant view of the Catholic Church.

A colourful frontier travel book, best read as a missionary’s account of his time and its prejudices. Download the free EPUB.
