Out on the Pampas G A Henty 9781590870952 Books

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Obviously it is dated, but as an Argentine who spent all her summer holidays on an estancia, as ranches are called in Argentina, I can vouch for its authenticity. The description of life on the Pampas, the distances, the size of the properties acquired in the 1850's are true to life. I don't know about the relationship with the native indians because, although attacks from the "malones", as the tribes were known, were common, I don't know enough about the fate of the white women kidnapped by the indians.

Out on the Pampas G A Henty 9781590870952 Books Reviews

just had to put something here to get it off of my review list. not for me to read.
I thoroughly enjoy Henty books, as do my kids. We read a friend's copy of Out on the Pampas years ago and wanted to give it as a gift. I have read thrift editions before and found no problems, but this one is loaded with errors. For example from p. 61 "...he wrote on eight leaves of his pocket 277 hearted fellow..." It is also very short so I seriously doubt the entire book is included in this copy. Out on the Pampas is a great read, but buy a different copy. Don't waste your time with this one.
