ROUND AND ABOUT SOUTH AMERICA: 



Twenty Months of Quest and Query. By Frank Vincent, 

 author of " The Land of the White Elephant," etc. With Maps, 

 Plans, and 54 full-page Illustrations. 8vo, xxiv + 473 pages. 

 Ornamental cloth, $5.00. 



No former traveler has made so comprehensive and thorough a tour of 

 Spanish and Portuguese America as did Mr. Vincent. He visited every 

 capital, chief city, and important seaport, made several expeditions into the 

 interior of Brazil and the Argentine Republic, and ascended the Parana, 

 Paraguay, Amazon, Orinoco, and Magdalena Rivers ; he visited the crater 

 of Pichinchas, 16,000 feet above the sea-level ; he explored falls in the center 

 of the continent, which, though meriting the title of "Niagara of South 

 America," are all but unknown to the outside world ; he spent months in 

 the picturesque capital of Rio Janeiro ; he visited the coffee districts, studied 

 the slaves, descended the gold-mines, viewed the greatest rapids of the globe, 

 entered the isolated Guianas, and so on.

 ex-Consul-General to Brazil. i2mo. Cloth, $1.50. 



" I hope I may be able to present some facts in respect to the present situation of 

 Brazil which will be both instructive and entertaining to general readers. My means 

 of acquaintance with that empire are principally derived from a residence of three 

 years at Rio de Janeiro, its capital, while employed in the service of the United States 

 Government, during which period I made a few journeys into the interior." — From 

 the Preface.
