Book The Andes and the Amazon

Download or read book The Andes and the Amazon written by C. Reginald Enock and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JOURNEY to the ANDES and AMAZON. Peru: This photo journal chronicles the highlights of my journey to Peru.

My journey began in the Sacred Valley with visits to Peru's Sacred Valley of the Inca including Chinchero, Urubamba, Moray, Ollantaytambo, Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Pisac and Cusco. I then ventured into the Peruvian Amazon following the Maranon, Amazon and Yanayacu rivers to explore and experience the rich culture of the region and the incredible biodiversity of the Amazon Refuge Wildlife Conservation Center, a private jungle reserve. My trip was amazing, and I know this journal will inspire wanderlust travelers to dive into the wonders of Peru. You will find my journal an excellent companion to published Peru travel guides."

Book Life and Death in the Andes

Download or read book Life and Death in the Andes written by Kim MacQuarrie and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A thoughtfully observed travel memoir and history as richly detailed as it is deeply felt” (Kirkus Reviews) of South America, from Butch Cassidy to Che Guevara to cocaine king Pablo Escobar to Charles Darwin, all set in the Andes Mountains. The Andes Mountains are the world’s longest mountain chain, linking most of the countries in South America. Kim MacQuarrie takes us on a historical journey through this unique region, bringing fresh insight and contemporary connections to such fabled characters as Charles Darwin, Che Guevara, Pablo Escobar, Butch Cassidy, Thor Heyerdahl, and others. He describes living on the floating islands of Lake Titcaca. He introduces us to a Patagonian woman who is the last living speaker of her language. We meet the woman who cared for the wounded Che Guevara just before he died, the police officer who captured cocaine king Pablo Escobar, the dancer who hid Shining Path guerrilla Abimael Guzman, and a man whose grandfather witnessed the death of Butch Cassidy. Collectively these stories tell us something about the spirit of South America. What makes South America different from other continents—and what makes the cultures of the Andes different from other cultures found there? How did the capitalism introduced by the Spaniards change South America? Why did Shining Path leader Guzman nearly succeed in his revolutionary quest while Che Guevara in Bolivia was a complete failure in his? “MacQuarrie writes smartly and engagingly and with…enthusiasm about the variety of South America’s life and landscape” (The New York Times Book Review) in Life and Death in the Andes. Based on the author’s own deeply observed travels, “this is a well-written, immersive work that history aficionados, particularly those with an affinity for Latin America, will relish” (Library Journal).

Book excerpt: The Andes and the Amazon Across the Continent of South America by James Orton This volume is one result of a scientific expedition to the equatorial Andes and the river Amazon. The expedition was made under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution, and consisted of the following gentlemen besides the writer: Colonel Staunton, of Ingham University, Leroy, N.Y.; F.S. Williams, Esq., of Albany, N.Y.; and Messrs. P.V. Myers and A. Bushnell, of Williams College. We sailed from New York July 1, 1867; and, after crossing the Isthmus of Panama and touching at Paita, Peru, our general route was from Guayaquil to Quito, over the Eastern Cordillera; thence over the Western Cordillera, and through the forest on foot to Napo; down the Rio Napo by canoe to Pebas, on the Marañon; and thence by steamer to Pará.

Book Across Peruvian Deserts  Over the Andes  and Down the Amazon

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.
