A 1920 Geographical Review article surveying the state and prospects of commercial cotton growing in South America. It treats Peru's irrigated desert valleys in the most detail (varieties, planting seasons, labor, transport, exports), then Brazil's history, regions, methods, production and boll weevil problems, then northern Argentina, Paraguay and Bolivia. A final section covers the Guianas, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile and Uruguay. It includes a sketch map of cotton-producing areas, three pages of field photographs, and footnoted sources.
