Synopsis
This book chronicles the author's expedition across South America as he journeys by boat through the Amazon and its tributaries, up the Madeira River, and overland across the Andes Mountains to the Pacific Ocean.

Brilliantly depicting the challenges of the expedition and the natural wonders of the journey, this book is both an essential historic travelogue and an evocative portrait of a bygone world.
