Colonel Fawcett experienced more adventures in his life than most of us could endure. In his highly detailed account he takes us with him into the Amazon jungle where giant anacondas, deadly insects, Indians shooting poisoned arrows, horrible diseases, and countless other dangers become a part of his daily life. What is more, Colonel Fawcett uses clear sentences, abundant knowledge, and on-site photographs which he developed himself to make his detailed account come alive. This was a remarkable man who never returned from his last expedition. This book tells the truth and tells it well. Buy it. You will read it, treasure it in your library, and end up buying copies for your friends.
