In the Wilds of South America, Six Years of Exploration in Colombia, Venezuela, British Guiana, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil (Classic Reprint)
My experience as a field-naturalist consists of nearly six years of almost continuous exploration inS outh A merica, and embraces practically all of the republics of that continent. The purpose of this narrative is to follow the course of these explorations into the tropical jungles of the A mazon, Paraguay, Orinoco, and others of South America smaster rivers, and to the frigid heights of the snow-crowned A ndes. In these jungles one hears the hoarse cough of the jaguar and the scream of long-tailed, multicolored macaws as they fly two by two overhead; the extraordinary chorus of frogs and insects may lull the weary senses to sleep at nightfall, but the dismal roar of howling monkeys is sure to awaken one at dawn.
