That’s too bad for @Dragon. I can try and ask around if you want @Dragon?

Damn, that’s a flex. I’m sorry. I honored that you asked us peasants first.

Very interesting read, but my heart broke when I learned that Ernesto Rodrigues III died last year. He compiled a book with the results of the South American Games, as well as the Pan Am Games and the Olympic Games, but the one about the SA Games remain the only credible source of historical results for the competition. He even distributed it for free. I e-mailed him once and he replied with enthusiasm about his book. Oh, man. Life is unfair. He will be missed.

Where could one find such a literary masterpiece?  I’d be interested in those books for sure.

Not sure about the ones about the Pan Ams and the Olympics, but here is the one about the South American Games.

There's one (not from Rodriguez, though) about the CAC Games with results from 1926 to 2010. I think you would like to read it too. You can download it here.

Incredible resources for my reporting and archiving, thank you very much for sharing his works. I’m so glad other people have a deep passion for this stuff too. Terrible shame to hear of his passing.
