From Buenaventura up to Cali, then into the Cauca Valley and the paramos above Popayan, Leo Miller collected birds and mammals where the Andes climb toward snow. His pages cross the Cerro Munchique, follow the Caldas on its cruise, and map ranges few naturalists had walked. A working expedition, told plainly. Travel the cordillera without leaving your chair.

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.
