Summary "The Amazing Argentine: A New Land of Enterprise" by John Foster Fraser is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the rich cultural, economic, and agricultural landscape of Argentina during a time of rapid development and immigration. It details the rise of Argentina as a key player in global agriculture and emphasizes the influx of European migrants who seek a better life in this burgeoning nation. The opening portion introduces readers to Fraser’s journey across the Americas, starting with a reflection on Columbus's landing at San Salvador and leading to his observations aboard an Atlantic liner filled with hopeful immigrants. Fraser paints a vivid picture of the modern wave of invaders—modern emigrants from Spain and Portugal—who leave their countries seeking work in industries such as agriculture and infrastructure. He provides insight into the contrast between past colonial conquests and present economic migrations, as well as the burgeoning development in places like Buenos Aires. The narrative suggests a dynamic and evolving Argentine society, characterized by ambition, enterprise, and the energy of its diverse immigrant population.
