Hecho despues de la edición original Londres Ackermann 1820. Bellas impressiones de las dos cuidades. - El pintor y acuarelista inglés Emeric Essex Vidal viajó por Argentina y Uruguay plasmando escenas de la ciudad y el campo. Sirvió en la Armada Británica lo que le permitió viajar extensamente por América Latina. Esta obra viene a ser su diario personal de viaje en el que recoge a través de las 24 ilustraciones pintorescas muchas escenas de Buenos Aires y las Pampas circundantes con comentarios sobre la raza la forma de vida y la economía junto con la esclavitud y la industria productiva. Relata también detalladamente los recursos naturales con especial atención al ganado. Ofrece una visión positiva de la jerarquía racial y sostiene que la jerarquía es buena y los de abajo la apoyan. Vidal llega a describir la institución de la esclavitud como beneficiosa e incluso que los esclavos eran felices porque sostiene: He visto a muchos negar la libertad cuando se les ofrece. Muestra también cuidado al mencionar que el trato a los esclavos es bueno y posiblmente mejor que en algunas de las colonias británicas.
