On the Argentine pampas, cattle and wheat built a nation almost overnight. Denis surveys the young republic's natural regions, from the scrub where herders live to the industrial promise of Tucuman and Mendoza. An economic and geographic portrait of a country booming on agriculture. See how grass and grain made Argentina rich.
