From the Back Cover
The Amazon has long been associated with exploration and adventure. The world's greatest river, it flows from its source high in the Peruvian Andes through mountains, cloudforest and vast tracts of rainforest to its final destination on Brazil's eastern shores. The Bradt guide to The Amazon describes every aspect of travel in this unique region. Whether you are seeking the last word in luxurious riverboats or how to plan your own expedition, a chance to discover the extraordinary diversity of flora and fauna or to find out about the people whose lives have been molded by the river, this guide is indispensable. This guide includes all countries of the Amazon Basin and Orinoco, detailed illustrated natural history section, gateway towns with the best access to the river, riverboats and canoe trips, preparation, planning and other practical details as well as clear regional maps and town plans. (5 1/4 x 8 1/2, 448 pages, maps, charts, color photos, illustrations)
