1. Lucas Bridges spent his life walking on eggshells in my opinion. He loved his adopted people the Yaghans and the Ona, yet he was never far away from his potential death in the many encounters he had with them. His book shows this tension at every turn. His ability to recall specific events and name the people is admirable. I recommend this book and a visit to his beloved Tierra Del Fuego. Although I did not get to his Harberton, I am incredibly fascinated with Ushuaia and surrounds, especially the mountain views. As a kid in Canada I watched Cowboys and Indians in movies and always I cheered for the Indians. Living now in New Zealand I cheer the Maori. The colonists called all the natives they met in all the continents "Indians" but now the native people have their own names.



2. A year ago we visited Ushuaia and Estancia Harberton, where memories of the Bridges family are very much alive. (We were shown about Harberton by the great-great-grandson of Thomas Bridges.) We were very anxious to acquire a copy of Lucas Bridges's book, but it was out of print, even in its Spanish edition. So we were delighted when we discovered on Amazon that it was about to be published in a new hardcover edition, and even more delighted when we received the book and realized that Natalie Goodall (the grandmother of our 2007 tour guide) had written a new introduction and epilogue for it. The book will be doubly treasured, for the information it contains and the associations it brings. Blue skies! -- Dan Ford



3. How Tierra del Fuego was settled.
   The folly of early missionary work.
   An anthropolocial study of the native people.
   The the hard ships and joys of settling a new land;
   
   But at its heart a narrative by Mr. Bridges on himself and his family who possessed a love for its native peoples and land that came to define them. And Alas it's a tale of the progression of civilization and the displacement (absorption) of native cultures that has played out across this globe.
   Thanks Mr. Bridges



4. This book is about the colonization of Ushuaia, the southernmost town in the world. Although every account is 100% non-fiction, reading it was a magical journey between the real and surreal. One moment you're taken on an exploratory expedition, and the next you're learning the mysterious and mythical ways of the native Ona indians and the author's fantastic ability to befriend them, penetrate their culture and become a real life "Running with Wolves" character. A must read for anyone thinking about visiting Ushuaia.



5. Es quizá el libro más inspirador que se haya escrito sobre Tierra del Fuego, su historia, sus habitantes originarios, el encuentro de dos culturas. Entrega una lección para las futuras generaciones sobre cómo enfrentar nuestra presencia actual en la zona, de manera de proyectar un futuro cooperativo, sustentable y positivo no sólo para Tierra del Fuego, sino para gran parte de este planeta.
