The Andes and the Amazon; Or, Across the Continent of South America
James Orton
Across the whole continent of South America, from the high Andes to the vast Amazon, James Orton leads a scientific expedition dedicated to Charles Darwin. He records the landscapes, wildlife, and peoples of a continent still half-unknown to science. Part travel, part natural history. For the armchair explorer, a bold crossing of a wild and wondrous land.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
