Add to basketTranslated from the French by H. A. G. Schmuckler. 8vo; original green boards; pictorial dustwrapper; endpaper map; pp. 190, incl. index; photographic plates; line drawings and maps in text. Dustwrapper somewhat rubbed and rather edgeworn; a little light foxing to endpapers and flyleaf; previous owner's name on title page. Very…good condition. "Ever since the days when its existence was first suspected by Columbus, the Orinoco has been a mystery river, and was the last of the great rivers of the world to surrender the secret of its source. Indeed, the origin of the river remained unknown until 1951, when the Franco-Venezuelan Expedition, of which this book is the firsthand record, successfully reached the source. . Joseph Grelier's account of this ascent of the Orinoco is a restrained, straightforward picture of modern exploration; he has had no need to introduce heroics for his effect: the facts of hardship, determination and dogged endurance speak for themselves.".
