A Primary Source Guide to Argentina
Countries of the World: A Primary Source Journey
Spanish explorers came to Argentina in the 1500s in search of silver. They did not find silver, but they discovered the many other wonderful resources Argentina has to offer. In this volume, students will be able to make these discoveries for themselves. They will uncover the wide open spaces of the pampas in this, the second-largest country in South America. They will learn about the gauchos, Argentina's folk heroes, who are still seen riding the countryside today. All this and more are presented through dynamic and colorful primary-source materials.
