About This Book

Un religioso relata con detalle un reconocimiento fluvial del Bermejo, describiendo jornadas de navegación, sondas diarias y las distancias entre hitos; anota los nombres de las tribus ribereñas y compara su experiencia con las de otros exploradores. Registra obstáculos como un banco de greda en el Salto de Isó, señala la variación estacional del caudal y la navegabilidad, y ofrece observaciones sobre la topografía y la vegetación de las vegas, la fertilidad del suelo y las posibilidades prácticas para mejorar la navegación y la colonización.
