WORKS BY SIR FRANCIS HEAD. |
ROUGH NOTES OF JOURNEYS ACROSS THE PAMPAS
AND OVER THE ANDES. Post 8vo. 2s. 6d. "None of Sir Francis Head's works have achieved a greater popularity than his Gallop across the Pampas. Written thoroughly con amore, and with the easy flow of ideas that seem, like their originator, to be swinging along at a hand-gallop, he carries us away with him over the boundless plains of South America, free and untrammelled as himself."—Frazer's Magazine, Jan. 1861.

"Sir Francis Head's works are now so well known to the British public that it is almost superfluous to criticise their merits or their style. "His descriptions remind us of Hogarth. There is the same minute attention to details, the same truthfulness of outline, the same undercurrent of humour."—Frazer's Magazine, Jan. 1861.
