A. J. Lees

BRAZIL THAT NEVER WAS (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When A.J. Lees was a boy, his father gave him a dog-eared book called Exploration Fawcett. It told the true story of an explorer, who in 1925 had gone in search of a lost city in the Amazon, and never returned. Lees was fascinated by the story of Fawcett's encounters with deadly animals and hostile tribes. Years later, after becoming a successful neurologist, Lees set off in search of Fawcett. What he found exceeded his wildest imaginings. Part travelogue, part memoir, Lees paints a portrait of an elusive Brazil, and a flawed explorer whose doomed mission ruined lives.
