White Waters and Black. A travel tale of South American expeditions
Gordon MacCreagh chronicles an ill fated eight member expedition from Arica through Bolivia along the Rio Negro to the Amazon. Ill suited for long isolation, the group dissolves as misadventure, elements of humor, danger and discovery color the narrative. The author blends personal observation with portraits of the scientists and a dramatic escape after poisoning pots spur a rapid descent for medical aid.
