Montevideo · 1885 · quotedThe Purple Land
W. H. Hudson
Richard Lamb loose in the Banda Oriental, the purple land east of the river: he lands at Montevideo, rides north through Canelones and Florida toward an estancia on the Paysandú border, and is swept into Santa Coloma's doomed revolt across the Cuchilla Grande and the coast of Rocha. Hudson rode this ground himself, and it brings Uruguay, and South America, into the atlas.
