DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Chilean Revolution of 1891 The lack of vessels for the transportation of tr00ps was sorely felt by the Government, and at the conclusion of the war negotiations had been completed looking to the purchase of one or more steamers for this pur pose. The Imperial was continually running up and down the coast, doing all that could be done by a single vessel. She was well armed, and usually convoyed by one or both of the Government torpedo cruis ers, and though several times chased, She was always fortunate enough to elude her pursuers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Dark Days in Chile: An Account of the Revolution of 1891 Whatever may be the verdict in store for this volume, it may at least claim the merit of being a faithful record of the writer's experiences, observations, and convictions. With the exception of the last chapter, the book is based upon notes made regularly and methodically in Chile. And that the author's views upon the merits of the political questions at issue are not those commonly held by his fellow-countrymen is entirely due to the conflicting sources of information upon which those views are respectively based.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Visit to Chile and the Nitrate Fields of Tarapaca, Etc I was invited to go out that I might see and report what had been done and what was being done, and to examine the works which had transformed the desert of Tarapaca wastes without a sign of life or vegetation - into a centre of commercial enterprise, and which had covered it with ani mated industry and prosperous life. It had been asserted in certain journals that commercial enterprises in that region were shams swindles, indeed, would be the word to use if they were what those organs described them to be - and that a railway, in which the public had invested largely, was a tramway ending in a marsh. Although I can not say I was a very Gallio in respect to these things, I certainly knew nothing of them. I told my friends that I was perfectly and altogether ignorant in that con nection. So much the better! All I would have to do was to judge for myself and relate what I saw. There was no mystery to penetrate, no theory to demolish or sus tain, no complex problems to study.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Journal of a Residence in Chile: During the Year 1822, and a Voyage From Chile to Brazil in 1823 The Journal of a residence in Chile should naturally have been placed between the two visits to Brazil, which are the subject of the writers former volume. The reasons for dividing the Journals have been given in the preface to that of the residence in Brazil. The Introduction to the present volume is, perhaps, its most important part. Of the first six years of the revolution in Chile, no account is to be procured, either from the offices of the secretaries of state, or among the papers of the actors in the scene. During the few wretched days that elapsed between the defeat of the Patriots at Rancagua and their crossing the Andes, the whole of the public papers and documents that could be collected were burnt, in order to prevent them from falling into the hands of the Spaniards, who might have persecuted those families who remained in their country, and whose names might have been found among those of the Patriots. Hence until 1817, no records are to be traced even in the hands of government; and until the middle of 1818 nothing whatever was printed in Chile; so that a few years hence all remembrance of the early period of the revolution in that country may be lost.
