Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Andes and the Amazon: Life and Travel in Peru Peru is a country covered with a certain halo of romance - the romance of history; of that time when continents were found, taken, and explored; the romance of a civilised and little-known race-the Inca- extending back before the keels of those old caravels from Europe ploughed the seas of the New World; the romance of the Spaniards, picturesque and cruel; the romance of Nature in her most stupendous operations, her Andean and Amazonian handiwork. The true traveller must not banish the natural sentiment of such portentous matters from his vision. It is not a sentiment which will render it opaque, but is rather the stimulus of imagination, which directs his steps and urges his pen and pencil to the portraying of the things which pass before his senses. Moreover, the true traveller must be an Universalist. That is, he must see the good of things, the good which penetrates everything in conjunction with, or in superior relation to, the so palpable evil of Man and Circumstance. The bare wilderness and the poor Indian have some use and intrinsic value, as well as the cultivated valley and the civilised dweller of the cities. Loyal to Nature and the universe of which he. is a part, the traveller and observer will be an impartial judge; he will ever refrain from "drawing up an indictment against a whole nation," or from hastily condemning any existing thing.

Download or read book Across Peruvian Deserts Over the Andes and Down the Amazon written by Jack Power and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The team of explorers sat on the edge of the foreboding canopy of the Amazon jungle. It was 1919 and few Europeans or Americans had ventured into the depths of this section of the Amazon jungle. This is the story, based upon the journal of an ordinary young man from a typical small mid-western town, and the journey he and fellow team members took from the harbor of New York, through the Panama Canal, across the deserts of Peru, up the Inca trails of the Andes, and down the vast waterway of the Amazon basin. Readers will see the mysteries of South America through the eyes of William Power whose journal is the driving force for the book. In addition to Mr. Power's account of the day to day challenges facing the team, the book presents a concise history of European and American exploration and exploitation of the entire region. Readers will have a first-hand view of the beginning of oil exploration in Central and South America and see how the Cortez Oil Company for whom Bill Power worked, as well as other American and European companies, began the destruction of the Amazon Rain Forest. Using untouched photographs and memorabilia from Mr. Power's personal effects, the reader will be able to walk alongside him from his youth to the year's following the journey into the most mysterious and unexplored region in the Americas where dangers lurked behind every tree and bush, and hostile blow gun wielding natives cautiously monitored the team's movements. The pages of the text present true and actual events but the story goes beyond the facts showing the reader the wonders of the Amazon as seen by a young adventurer.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Narrative of a Journey From Lima to Para Across the Andes and Down the Amazon: Undertaken With a View of Ascertaining the Practicability of a Navigable Communication With the Atlantic, by the Rivers Pachitea, Ucayali, and Amazon The greatest impediment in navigating this river is, that both banks are inhabited by savages of the Cashibo nation, who are cannibals, and who subsist on human flesh: they are not in amity with any other nation. But it would be easy to remove this impediment, and render this important river serviceable to the export of the produce of these countries.
