About this book

In 1913 Theodore Roosevelt joined the Brazilian explorer Candido Rondon on an expedition to map an uncharted Amazon tributary then known as the River of Doubt. This is his account of that journey, part natural history and part survival narrative, recording the wildlife, rivers, and peoples of the interior alongside the hunger, fever, and accidents that nearly killed him. Rapids wrecked canoes, supplies ran short, and Roosevelt himself came close to death from infection. His notes on birds, mammals, and the work of collecting specimens sit beside descriptions of a punishing landscape. The river was later renamed in his honor. A record of one of the last great expeditions of its era, free to download as a PDF and EPUB.
