A ballad by Lynette Roberta
Produced by Peter Duval Smith
This original unpublished ballad is based on the true story of John Daniel Evans. In 1865 Welsh colonists founded a settlement at Chubut in Patagonia; and in 1883 Evans, with three fricnds, journeyed into the interior in search of gold. The party was attacked by Teihuelche Indians and only Evans escaped with his life.
