Abstract

Based on the unpublished manuscript "A Província do Rio Grande do Sul - descripção e viagens", which describes the travels of Henry Schutel Ambauer (1840-1899) in the end of 1850, this study aims to analyze topics relating to customs, culinary habits now forgotten, the rustic life of inhabitants, the nature almost untouched, the decisive influence of climatic factors in the daily lives of travelers, the hardiness of land routes, the importance of rivers in travels of the past and the hospitality of the gauchos, which varied from the warmest welcome possible to the coldness of a lying in the open at night.
