Una vida de aventuras entre tehuelches, policias y colonos. Si damos credito a la memoria de Santiago Radboone y a la pluma de Herbert Childs, este libro es una fuente historiografica de altisimo valor para imaginar la colonizacion de la Patagonia mas austral. Las costumbres y las leyes no escritas de la conquista de la tierra por el europeo a la par del desvanecimiento de la era indigena se describen en los detalles mas cotidianos y crudos. En contraste con los escritos de viajeros y observadores externos, esta historia de la vida pionera en Magallanes y Santa Cruz esta relatada desde lo intimo. La vida de Santiago "El Jimmy" Radboone expone la epopeya de quienes se impusieron a la Patagonia agreste y pura sin mas respaldo que su coraje.

"Herbert Childs wrote this book in 1936 after having travelled to Estancia Nana, deep in the argentinean side of the Andes. He was invited by Mr. Radboone because he knew about another book written by Robert and Katharine Barret in 1931, "A yankee in Patagonia - Edward Chace" and we wanted to tell his own story. If we add to these two books those written by Mr. Andreas Madsen, a Dane who arrived in 1903 (Old Patagonia, Buenos Aires, 1952, and Hunting Pumas in Patagonia, Buenos Aires, 1956) we will be able to know which were the problems that simple people had to get rid of it they want to obtain a piece of land. We know something about land grants in Santa Cruz thanks to Elsa Barbería, but in Argentina there are few books telling us the life and problems that the first settlers had. Radboone told what really happened to him. I was able to check it working few years ago in some patagonian archives and the problems he told to the writer in his "fight for the camp" were those I read in the archives. As I wrote, it is a very important book for the history of the occupation of some places near the Cordillera between lakes San Martin and Viedma, which is not written yet. And books like this, are very useful for those who are trying to obtain information directly from the very few settlers that arrived at the very begining."
