Important anthropological study on the original habitants of Patagonia (most southern part of Argentina and Chile). Sadly, their culture, and, actually, the people themselves have long disappeared. Written by the French anthropologist (chiefly palaeoanthropologist, interested in Cro-Mangnon) René Verneau (1852-1938). Uncut. A very good, clean copy.
