“Mr Koebel is essentially a writer sympathetic to the lands of which he writes. What his book loses in depth it gains by virtue of this sympathy, by its author’s earnest desire to see things from the South American angle, without in the least abandoning the attitude of a man alive to the defects of those whom he is describing. It is a stimulating work by a sane and just writer.”

“Mr W. H. Koebel’s last addition to the, by now, rather lengthy series of books which he has written on Spanish-America, is disappointing.... He obviously knows as well as anybody that the problems are there and call for answer. But he does little more than indicate their presence, and then wander in generalities and descriptions, not without occasional repetitions.”
