Publisher's Synopsis
A Bibliography on South American Economic Affairs was first published in 1955.
This bibliography covers articles in 229 nineteenth-century periodicals in Spanish, Portuguese, English, French, German, Italian, Swedish, Danish, and Dutch. The bibliographical entries total 9,939, of which more than 6,200 are original entries and the remainder, cross references. The entries are grouped under 11 major geographic headings, with nine subheadings on such subjects as agriculture, commerce, and communications under each. The bibliography provides a reference key to a large and important class of source materials for the economic history of South America. Since the period covered precedes the first publication of the Poole Index and the Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature, the material is not to be found in these standard indexes.
