 One River: Explorations and Discoveries in the Amazon Rain Forest by Wade DavisDeep in the Amazon rain forest botanist Richard Evans Schultes lived among indigenous tribes, mapped uncharted rivers and searched for the elusive sacred plants of the Aztec. In his fieldwork Schultes encountered and collected plants previously unknown to science, experienced the realm of the shaman, and documented the fragile ecosystem that is now quickly disappearing. Written by one of Schultes own students, ethnobotanist Wade Davis, One River is a biography filled with adventure, excitement, and discovery. "Amazing...within the literary jungle as within the botanical one, bright flowers, intricately shaped leaves, towering old trees all appear to the traveler who is willing to make the journey."" --Will St. John, Chicago Tribune Paperback 537 pages - 6" x 9 1/8" - (8/97)Regularly: $17.00 Now: $14.45 Save $2.55 (15%)
