Across Patagonia (1881)

Across Patagonia is a travelogue written by Florence Dixie, detailing her journey through the wilderness of Patagonia in South America in the late 19th century. The book is divided into chapters, each describing a different leg of Dixie's journey, from her arrival in Buenos Aires to her travels through the Andes Mountains and the desolate plains of Patagonia. Dixie's vivid descriptions bring to life the rugged landscape, the harsh weather conditions, and the fascinating wildlife she encounters along the way. She also provides insights into the culture and customs of the indigenous peoples she meets, as well as the European settlers who have made their homes in this remote region. Throughout the book, Dixie shares her personal experiences and reflections, offering a unique perspective on the challenges and rewards of travel in a time and place far removed from the comforts of modern life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
