This books presents an overall picture of the area at that time - its physical characteristics, the beef cattle industry, the mineral and agricultural opportunities and its transport needs while considering the political and administrative background and the social problems which inevitably arose from the occupation of vast territories by a small white population in tropical conditions and finally, the necessity of attracting men and money for developmental projects.
