Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Thousand Miles' Ride Through the Argentine Provinces, Vol. 2 of 2: Being an Account of the Natural Products of the Country, and Habits of the People; With a Historical Retrospect of the Rio De La Plata, Monte Video, and Corrientes My first interview with General Rosas was in one of the avenues in his pleasure-grounds, where, under the shade of willows, we walked for several hours; after sunset he conducted me to an arbour, where he revived the interminable subject of poli tics. On this occasion he wore a sailor's jacket, with blue trousers and cap, and carried a long crooked stick in his hand. His handsome ruddy counten ance, and portly aspect (he is of sanguineous tem perament), gave him the appearance of an English country gentleman. He is in height about five feet ten inches, and his age is now fifty-nine years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
