Through the Brazilian Wilderness
The Roosevelt–Rondon Scientific Expedition was jointly led by Theodore Roosevelt and Candido Rondon in 1913–14 to be the first Old World explorers of the 1000-mile long "River of Doubt" (later renamed Rio Roosevelt) located in a remote area of the Brazilian Amazon basin which had previously been explored by the indigenous people of the area. Sponsored in part by the American Museum of Natural History, they also collected many new animal and insect specimens. This book has a beautiful glossy cover and a blank page for the dedication.
