Ninety-two days – A journey in Guiana and Brazil –

“‘Who in his senses will read, still less buy, a travel book of no scientific value about a place he has no intentention of visiting?’
Waugh provides the answer to his own question in this quite unputdownable chronicle of a South American journey. In it, he describes the isolated cattle country of Guiana, sparsely populated by a bizarre collection of visionaries, rogues and ranchers, and records his nightmarish experiences travelling on foot, by horse and by boat throught the jungle into Brazil.”
