Descripción de la Patagonia y de las Partes Adyacentes de la América Meridional

Thomas Falkner

Thomas Falkner was an English Jesuit missionary, explorer and physician, active in the Patagonia region for nearly forty years. His primary work, The Description of Patagonia, was written towards the idea of English colonization, but it remains valuable as a record of early life, flora and fauna of the region. He is credited with recording the first fossil in present-day Argentina.
