Argentinian Adventures: A Planthunter in Argentina (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781664117235)

Argentina is a fascinating and endlessly varied country. This book accounts of four visits, the first of which was a three-month tour of the north of the country, collecting plants for the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. This first visit encouraged me to undertake two further visits while still employed by Kew Gardens. Because of these botanical connections, there is a wealth of references to the fabulous flora of the region. Flora can't exist in isolation to fauna, and animal life is discussed whenever it is chanced upon. Several exciting episodes imposed themselves into what became increasingly eventful journeys.
