Moreno was a tireless traveler, impassioned investigator, and staunch patriot who became the first Argentine ever to reach Lake Nahuel Huapi. In his memoirs, written more than 30 years after the events of his life, he reminisces about his first journey to Northern Patagonia. Gathered by his son, these narrations include the incredible adventure of his capture by the famous Cacique Shaihueque, chief of the Manzaneros Indians. Moreno tells us how after being sentenced to death, he escaped by drifting down the Limay river rapids on a makeshift raft. This is an exhilarating account that pays tribute to an outstanding man whose memory should be cherished by generations to come as a way of preserving certain values that we honor but tend to forget when times get tough. In his own words, written in one of the documents found in his desk after his death: ". I am 66 years old and haven't a cent! I have given 1,800 leagues to my country and a National Park for the benefit of future citizens, so that they may find solace and renewed strength to serve this country. Yet, I have not so much as a square meter of land to give my children to bury my own ashes! It was I who staked the claim over 1800 leagues of disputed territory for Argentina, when no one else could defend those lands and secure Argentine sovereignty over them. Still, there is no place for my ashes, not even a 20 by 20 centimeter box. My ashes would take up so little space. Yet if they were spread out they might stretch across all the land I acquired for my country. It would no doubt be a very thin layer but it would be visible to the eyes of those who are, in fact, grateful.". Codice articolo 008719
