Dear Brent et al; I have a book, Plant Hunters in the Andes, by T. Harper Goodspeed and published by Farrer and Rinehart, Inc., dated 1941. The countries covered are Peru and Chile, Paraguay Argentina and Uruguay, with a little about Equador. This was a trip sponsored by the University of California Botanical Gardens 1935-36 and 1938-39 I suppose others have this book? It makes for interesting reading. Cheers, John E. Bryan "Brent A.
