Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by William Trost Richards, Thomas Moran and J. M. W. Turner. An expedition through Patagonia in 1900 looking for a giant ground sloth reported to be still alive. They did not find it. Hesketh-Prichard wrote up the country, the guanaco and the Welsh settlers instead, and later founded the British army's sniping school. Its 119 original illustrations have been carefully restored and coloured for this edition.
