    He did an enormous amount of work to help grant the Wichi in Chaco their land back from their ancestors. He also married a Wichi woman with who he had six children.

    I had never heard of the gentleman and his efforts must surely be admired.

    His life work improved the lives of many. He made a difference in the world, something most of us can’t claim.
