Combining history, sociology, and political commentary, Sarmiento explores the impact of Argentine geography on the life of the gaucho; chronicles the often bloody political and military adventures of Facundo; examines the reign of the tyrannical ruler Juan Manuel de Rosas; and ponders the future of Argentina. This edition includes an informative introduction and a chronology of Sarmiento's life and times. It also restores the original author's note that was dropped for the 1868 English-language edition - and that is crucial to our understanding of Sarmiento and his views.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Facundo: Or, Civilization and Barbarism | Domingo F Sarmiento | Paperback | 9780140436778 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1789285","offer_id":67857768710296,"sku":"1789285","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81xhddIXs8L.jpg?v=1793496731","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/facundo-or-civilization-and-barbarism","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
