HADFIELD, William. Brazil and the River Plate 1870-1876. Sutton: Surrey, W. R. Church. 1877.

8vo. Original cloth, spine lettered in gilt, covers onamented in blind, front cover with Brazilian coat-of-arms in gilt; pp. [viii], 327, [16, advertisements for investors], tinted lithographic frontispiece-portrait, one further portrait after a photograph; light bubbling to cloth, spine dulled; light spotting to frontispiece and offsetting to opposite title; otherwise clean and fresh.

First edition. The Liverpool-born businessman, traveller, writer and long-term resident in Brazil William Hadfield (1806-1887) had travelled on business in Brazil early in his life. 'Hadfield resided in Brazil for several years, later moving to Argentina. While in Brazil, in addition to his association with the railway company, he attempted to establish steamer services on the Paraná, as well as to make links with neighbouring countries, and Europe. He set up the first steamship agency in Buenos Aires when he arrived there in 1852. Later, when the province of Buenos Aires temporarily broke away from the Argentine confederation, he developed contacts with General José de Urquiza, sometime president of the confederation, who was anxious to promote foreign investment in the region' (ODNB).

In 1854 he had published Brazil, the River Plate, and the Falkland Islands, of which title an updated edition appeared in 1868. The present work, much rarer than the previous one, is again an update on the economic, political and infrastructure developments since 1868, preceded by a travel diary from June 9, 1870 to January, 21, 1871, of a journey to and in Brazil (up to p. 198).

Borba de Moraes p. 389.

Great selection of dog toys at a good price!
Color: 25 Pack (Value-Toys)
Lots of great toys for your little little dog at a reasonable price. Even comes with doggie poop bags. At any of my local dog shops just one of the ropes would cost me the same as the whole box of toys.

Excellent Variety Pack - Dogs Love These Toys
Color: 25 Pack (Value-Toys)
This 25-pack is fantastic value with excellent variety—ropes, squeakers, and different textures keep dogs entertained. They're colorful, well-made, and my dogs love them. The main downside is the chew resistance on the rubber toys isn't the best; aggressive chewers can break through them fairly quickly. That said, for the price and the sheer number of toys you get, it's still a solid buy. Perfect for rotation and keeping dogs mentally stimulated. Just know that heavy chewers might go through the rubber ones faster than expected.

Color: 25 Pack (Value-Toys)
Fantastic for smaller dogs, our little chi-mix loves all of the toys, there's such a great variety and he's having so much fun chewing them and playing fetch with them. Even comes with many extra rolls of waste bags which is awesome. Highly recommended for the value and amount you receive!

SMALL DOGS ONLY!!!!
Color: 25 Pack (Value-Toys)
Every one of these toys are made for very small dogs. 🤣 They're almost too small for my 8 wk old border collies. Im still not upset at the order though as the pups will all be rehomed after this weekend. Was just bummed that every single one was made for SMALL DOGS. Am super happy with how fast shipping was.
