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. The history of the early pioneers is constructed with data not previously published, gathered from contemporary sources.

The work is enhanced by the author's personal observation of significant events and friendship with many of the participants.
