Reseña: Interesante edición chilena de Orellana descubre el Amazonas, obra en la que George Millar reconstruye la expedición de Francisco de Orellana y el primer descenso europeo del río Amazonas en el siglo XVI. El relato combina documentación histórica, pulso narrativo y sentido de aventura, siguiendo el avance de los españoles desde los territorios andinos hacia el gran río, entre conflictos, navegación precaria, encuentros indígenas, hambre, violencia y descubrimiento geográfico. La edición de Ercilla posee especial atractivo bibliográfico por su cuidada composición, la traducción de Hernán del Solar y la intervención editorial de Mauricio Amster, figura central del diseño del libro en Chile. El volumen incluye mapa de recorrido e ilustraciones históricas que acompañan el relato y refuerzan su valor como libro de exploración americana. Ejemplar recomendable para coleccionistas de historia de América, crónicas de conquista, literatura de viajes, Amazonía, ediciones chilenas ilustradas y trabajos editoriales vinculados a Mauricio Amster.…
