From the author of INTO THE SILENCE, winner of the Samuel Johnson
Prize for Non-Fiction In 1941, Richard Evans Schultes took a leave
of absence from Harvard University and disappeared into the
Northern Amazon of Colombia. The world's leading authority on the
hallucinogens and medicinal plants of the region, he returned after
twelve years of travelling through South America in a dug-out
canoe, mapping uncharted rivers, living among local tribes and
documenting the knowledge of shamans. Thirty years later, his
student Wade Davis landed in Bogota to follow in his mentor's
footsteps - so creating an epic tale of undaunted adventure, a
compelling work of natural history and a testament to the spirit of
scientific exploration.
