The Gaucho

By Sidney Lodwick Alford

Dom Pedro II, Emperor of Brazil, dubbed him "The Gaucho." The feud between renegade mestizos and the ranchers of the Brazilian Pampas reached a climax when the outlaw descendants of the Conquistadors raided "The Gaucho's" parent's ranch and murdered his parents and many others. The Gaucho forms a posse to rid the country of the outlaws. The chase continued for months through some of the most beautiful and unknown country, the southern Andes. The novel "The Gaucho" is an exciting tale where the battles occur in some of the most beautiful spots on the South American continent. The mestizos are treacherous and devise cruel and devious methods to kill their pursuers. "The Gaucho" will keep you enthralled as you follow a chase that begins near Igua?u Falls - seven times larger than Niagara - and ends at the end of the world on Cape Horn.
