If there's an opposite to swashbuckling, Roberta Allen's exploration
of Peru's Amazon is it. Sensitive and in no hurry, she learns the
ways of the jungle, the river, and the people, despite her occasional
fear and discomfort as an unmarried American woman of 41 traveling on
her own through a foreign culture, language, and land. She tells a
beautiful, perceptive, and introspective tale that allows the spirit
of the Amazon to emerge.
