Produktbeschreibung
Across Unknown South America Vol- I opens with a thirst for unknown rivers and unspoken peoples, inviting you to walk the highlands and riverways alongside a keen observer. A journey that feels both intimate and expansive, it blends memory and rigorous observation into a living travel writing anthology. Arnold Henry Savage Landor's exploration travelogue collection surveys the nineteenth century south, tracing the Andes and Amazon regions with a vivid eye for landscape descriptions, geology, and the shifting textures of native culture observations. The book moves between suspenseful voyage and careful ethnographic note, offering readers a rare, human-scale view of how a traveller weighs danger, wonder, and duty in equal measure. It is a landmark in classic travel literature, offering a window into forms of curiosity that shaped later exploration narratives classics. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this volume is more than a reprint: it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Restored for today's and future generations, the pages invite casual readers and history buffs alike to linger over maps, rivers, and the changing faces of communities confronted by vast landscapes. A compelling bridge between literature and history, it rewards both the insatiable reader and the discerning collector seeking a lasting record of travel, geography and culture in a bygone era.
