Sources for Latin America
Argentina and Uruguay |
These are published sources that I have found useful for research in the 19th Century. Most of these I have obtained via the inter-library loan scheme and they are held either in the British Library or in UK University libraries. The list is by no means exhaustive and most of the items listed below have ample bibliographies. |
