Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Peru in the Guano Age" is a book written by Alexander James Duffield. This book provides a historical account of Peru during the so-called "Guano Age," a period in the mid-19th century when Peru's economy was heavily dependent on the export of guano, a valuable fertilizer made from seabird excrement found on the country's coastal islands. During this era, guano became a valuable commodity in international trade, and Peru's economy experienced a boom due to guano exports. The book likely discusses the economic, social, and political aspects of this period, as well as the impact of guano mining on the environment and the broader historical context of Peru during the 19th century. The "Guano Age" is a significant and unique chapter in Peruvian history, and Duffield's work likely delves into the various aspects of this historical period.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peru in the Guano Age: Being a Short Account of a Recent Visit to the Guano Deposits, With Some Reflections on the Money They Have Produced and the Uses to Which It Has Been Applied The good prospects of Peru and Peruvian Bonds depend absolutely upon the continued prosperity of Chili, her moral integrity, her commercial enterprise, and her ability to undertake and successfully conduct the management of great affairs, combined with foresight and power to hold the territory she has conquered, until, at least, she has indemnified herself for the heavy charges she has incurred in her war with Peru. Peru, jealous, of Chili, was, it is now well known, the first to bring on a war, which has ended in her capital falling into the hands of the conquering Chilians. The jealousy in question was a trade jealousy; and how it arose can be stated in simple words. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author's DEDICATORY LETTER. A Senor, Don Juan Espinosa Y De Maldonado, Estimado y distinguido Amigo mio: It would be most pleasant to continue this letter in the language in which it begins and which you taught me some five and twenty years ago, but I wish others to read it as well as yourself. I dedicate this little book to you for several reasons: not because of our common friendship, extending now over more than a quarter of a century, nor yet for the confidence which you have reposed in me under many trying circumstances during that long period, but rather because you are much interested in the country which the book describes, are intimately acquainted with all the questions it raises, and more than all because you have a thorough knowledge of Peru-its people and history;-because further, it was you who first taught me how to regard your countrymen, opened my eyes to their good and other qualities, and because also you know that here I have set down nought in malice, have said nothing that you do not know to be true, and drawn no inference from the facts of past times or the doings of living men which you would not sanction and endorse. With one exception. I am quite aware that you do not share in what I have said at page 118, but this is not my own opinion- it is the candidly expressed view of the leading men of Lima. I know that you have always insisted upon Peru paying her debts, not merely because you well know that she can pay quite easily, but also because the effect on the moral life of the country, if she should prove a defaulter, will be most disastrous. It is pitiable beyond the power of human expression to find a single thoughtful Peruvian holding a contrary opinion. Since the following chapters were written several things have taken place which have corroborated some of my statements, and fulfilled more than one of my predictions. As you are aware a public meeting was held, a month after my departure from Lima, at the Treasurer's Office; at which were present the Minister of Finance and Commerce, the Chief Accountant, and many other officers of departments, for the purpose of receiving a communication from two Englishmen, setting forth the discovery of fresh guano deposits on the coast, in the province of Tarapaca. From all that could be gathered these new deposits may be fairly estimated as containing three million tons of guano. This confirms what I have said at page 101. And yet we have heard nothing new from Peru regarding the payment of her liabilities, nor has any official communication been made by the Government regarding this important discovery. If General Prado does not take care he will have his house pulled about his ears. One of the most interesting revolutions yet to be made in Peru is one in the interest of its honour and uprightness. If your friend General Montero appeals to the country in that cause he might immortalize his name and bring in the New Era. From the little I know of the General, however, I should say that such a task is too much for him. It requires a man broad of chest, of constant mind, of unimpeachable honour and absolute unselfishness to make a revolution of that sort. Still it is a good cry, and if Prado does not take it up himself he may come to grief when he least expects it."
