"South America, with its civilization, its resources, and its charms, is being con- 

 stantly introduced lo us, a.id as constantly surprises us. . . . The Parisian who thinks 

 us all barbarians is probably not denser in his prejudices than most of us are about our 

 Southern continent. We are content not to know, there seeming to be no reason why 

 we should. Fashion has not yet directed her steps there, and there has been nothing 

 to stir us out of our lethargy. . . . Mr. Vincent observes very carefully, is always 

 good-humored, and gives us the best of what he sees. . . . The reader of his book will 

 gain a clear idei of a marvelous country. Maps and illustrations add greatly to the 

 value of this work." — New York Co tjimercial Advertiser.

 them photographic reproductions. The printing of both text and plates is beyond 

 criticism." — Fhiiadeiphia P7iblic Ledger.
