Medals and Monuments of José de San Martín
A journey from Lima to Buenos Aires with stops along the way
By Donald H. Dool
Some twenty years ago, while working in Argentina, the author became interested in collecting San Martín commemorative medals. As many
of these had to do with the inauguration of monuments honoring San MartSan Lorenzo, the next step was photographing the monuments. The
resulting book contains photographs of over eighty monuments in Peru, Chile and Argentina and where applicable the associated medal. Over
11,000 miles were traveled by bus in the three countries along with an untold number of taxis, commuter trains and airplanes.
Signed copies of the book are available from the author at: dool@comcast.net .
Price: $35.00 plus $4.00 S&H to US addresses.
Wow! What an adventure! Excellent idea for a numismatic book. -Editor
