"COLECCIÓN DE VIAJES Y EXPEDICIONES A LOS CAMPOS DE BUENOS AIRES Y A LAS COSTAS DE PATAGONIA" by Pedro de Angelis is a historical account likely written in the early 19th century. This work serves as a compilation of official documents and journals from various explorers and officials who traveled through the southern regions of the Río de la Plata and Patagonia, offering valuable insights into the geography and natural history of these areas. The collection emphasizes fidelity and simplicity in the narratives presented, aiming to preserve the original characteristics of the untamed landscapes and the indigenous peoples. The opening of the work introduces the reader to the motivations behind compiling these travel accounts, stressing the sparse information available about the southern regions at the time. It outlines the value of the documents as records of exploration, highlighting notable figures such as the Father José Cardiel and his arduous journey, which involved various challenges while traversing through the Pampas and along the coast of Patagonia. The text sets the tone for an exploration of both geographical details and personal experiences encountered during these expeditions, promising readers a glimpse into the historical and cultural dynamics of 19th-century South America.
