Albert Martinez illegally, and seemingly with impunity, used the Baedeker name to sell his guide. More than that he closely mimicked the Baedeker look and feel as closely as he could. That aside, the guide is packed with useful information for the contemporary traveller and is an abundant resource of historical relevance – if you want to know the details of all the early 20th century registered league football clubs in "Buenos-Ayres et dans les environs" you'll find it here.
With an initial 80-page introduction to the République Argentine, the guide explains how to arrive at Buenos-Ayres from Europe followed by an extremely detailed section on Buenos-Ayres itself. Twenty-three routes to travel into the provinces and in one instance also "Chili", with full itinerary details for the traveller, are provided and are followed by routes allowing to traveller to venture into Uruguay, Bolivia, and Paraguay. Some black and white photographs are provided to accompany the text along with 11 plans and maps.This volume is heavier than the average quoted in my store listings and, as a consequence, the shipping cost will be higher than that quoted in my listing.
