Description

"This edition of the Lakeside Classic series recounts Theodore Roosevelt's harrowing journey down Brazil's previously unexplored River of Doubt. Roosevelt and his companions faced rapids that threatened them with death at the water's surface and voracious piranhas that could attack unseen from below. Torrential rain fell, ants and termites crawled into their camps to consume their supplies, and stinging wasps tormented them, while hunger, madness, and even murder threatened the band of explorers. We hope that you will enjoy this remarkable tale of challenge and triumph."--Publisher's website (viewed 12/08/2016).
