Hardcover. Condición: Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: No Dustjacket. Previous Owner Name. Front hinge cracked; a good reading copy. Illustrated by Cyrus LeRoy Baldridge. The story of an English gaucho and his horse and their ride through Paraguay and Brazil. C. W. Thurlow Craig went to Naval College and was a Midshipman in the Royal Navy in 1917, his wartime service including seeing action in the North Sea with H.M.S. Téméraire and in the Arctic sea. Keen to seek out further adventure, in March 1922, Craig, at the age of 20, left Liverpool aboard the S.S. Deseado, heading for Buenos Aires, Argentina. His plan was to become a gaucho, a South American cowboy, and he worked for the next dozen years as a farmer in Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. In time, he became foreman then manager of foreign-owned cattle stations with herds of up to 80,000 head, roaming over a million unfenced acres, destined as tinned corned-beef. In charge also of wild bunches of knife-wielding, gun-toting desperadoes, Carlos Craig (as he liked to be called), a superb horseman and crack shot, quickly learned to look after himself. His subsequent first-hand account of these years, Black Jack's Spurs, is a much-neglected classic. He later wrote the Sunday Express column Up Country, and books on fishing and shooting.
