Far from civilization Marie learns to make ostrich egg omelets, converse with the gauchos in Spanish, and wear "bombaches," the baggy, calf-length pants worn by the Argentine cowhands. Then, camped a thousand miles from Buenos Aires, Marie discovers she is pregnant. Photographs (included in the paperback) are those Marie herself took during her Argentine honeymoon.
