Great for the history, outdated for practical information.
At the time I'm sure it was excellent, but now it's time has passed. The Author hasn't updated the guide because he's been dead for 13 years. The history of troutfishing hasn't changed, but the rivers have. Some of the places he described as idyllic aren't, some of the rivers he denigrates are fantastic.

Best book on Flyfishing in Argentina ever written
Essential guide for anybody going to Patagonia for the first time. Despite having fished in Patagonia for 20 years, I learned more with this book than with all the local (argentine) literature. The history of how trouts were introduced in Argentina is fascinating. Having fished the Malleo, Chimehuin and other fabled rivers myself I think the books reccomendations are dead on. The author should update some of the info.
