Squier, a noted American antiquarian, here describes his observations of Nicaragua and adjacent territories. The discussion is divided into five parts in which he describes the geography and topography; the events during the author's residence including accounts of his explorations; observations on the proposed Interoceanic Canal; notes on the Aborigines of the county including information regarding geographical distribution, languages, institutions, religions, and customs; and the political history of the country since its independence from Spain.
