A friend gave me this book which is not the typical book I would read however, I can say it is one of my most memorable and enjoyable books ever. Wade Davis drew me in to The Amazon area, its native people and plants giving me an interest that I would not have thought possible. A very special author.

Ethnobotany at its grittiest
This book is amazing in its content, and anyone interested in aboriginal culture, ethnobotany, botany, uses of medicinal plants, traveling, the Amazon, Central America, South America, the Conquest, the effects of the Conquest on native peoples, etc. will love this book.
