A Paraguayan Treasure: The Search And The Discovery (1887) is a historical account written by Alexander Francis Baillie. The book tells the story of the author's search for a lost treasure in Paraguay. Baillie, a British adventurer and explorer, became fascinated with the legend of a hidden treasure that was said to have been buried by Jesuit priests in the 18th century. Baillie spent several years in Paraguay, studying maps and documents, and interviewing locals to piece together clues that would lead him to the treasure. He encountered many obstacles along the way, including dangerous animals, hostile natives, and treacherous terrain. The book chronicles Baillie's adventures and the eventual discovery of the treasure. It provides a detailed account of the treasure's history, including its origins and the circumstances surrounding its burial. The book also includes illustrations and maps that help to bring the story to life. Overall, A Paraguayan Treasure: The Search And The Discovery (1887) is an exciting and informative read for anyone interested in adventure, exploration, and history. It provides a unique glimpse into the world of treasure hunting in the late 19th century and sheds light on a little-known chapter of Paraguay's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
