Great Mountains and Forests of South America by Paul Fountain
A review of Paul Fountain's travel narrative detailing his 1884 Brazil expedition down the Amazon and Purus rivers. It notes his crippled condition, boat voyage with two sailors and four dogs, harsh jungle conditions, striking orchids, parasitic trees, and encounters with anaconda reports, birds, spiders, and wildlife descriptions. The piece compares Fountain's work to his earlier Great Deserts and Forests and underscores his observational stance and questions of natural theories.
