Alonzo de Ovalle, 1601-1651, was born in Santiago, the capital of Chile, and entered the Jesuit Order at the age of seventeen. The illustrations
in this work are of exceptional interest, particularly those relative to games, which include one played with sticks and a
ball and seeming to be a cross between hockey and lacrosse.
