Across South America / An account of a journey from Buenos Aires to Lima by way of Potosí, with notes on Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, and Peru

A travel account tracing coastal and overland routes through eastern Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, and Peru, combining descriptive narrative, maps, and photographs. The author documents ports and highland towns, journeys by rail and mule along historic Inca roads, and visits to archaeological sites and mountain lakes.
