Polo in Argentina
This work--the first of its kind in more than sixty years--covers polo in Argentina, from its beginnings in the 1870s to the summer of 2013.

Particular attention is given to the major clubs, the Argentine and Hurlingham Open Championships, and the National Handicap Tournament.

Travels abroad by Argentine teams are fully described as are the foreign teams that competed in Argentina. The work is enhanced by the author's personal observation of significant events and friendship with many of the participants.
