A book especially published to show the beauties of the country and to notify on the dangers that suffer their forests, their parks, their water and their animals, portraying province by province and town by town.

This book was published for our readers, for the thousands of argentines that want to hoard for ever a fantastic summary on their own country and for the foreigners who want to travel it through. We renew in the following pages a commitment we acquired many years ago: honour our country showing it in the best possible way.
