Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book details Lieutenant Thomas J. Pageâs 1853-1856 exploration and survey of the Rio de la Plata and its tributaries. Through its vivid narrative, this book presents a vivid portrait of a region on the cusp of vast change, on the cusp of having its rivers opened to foreign commerce for the first time in centuries. It also provides a glimpse into the political dynamics and social customs of the time. Page writes with an eye toward the scientific and commercial importance of the region, asserting that the areaâs tributary rivers would prove essential to international trade. His words have proven prophetic, as the regionâs rivers have become the lifeblood of South American commerce. This book is a valuable historical resource for historians and South America enthusiasts, as well as for those interested in the history of scientific exploration and diplomacy.
