best-selling author and National Geographic Explorer-in-
Residence for more than a decade--that brings vividly to
life the story of the great Río Magdalena, illuminating
Colombia's complex past, present, and future Travelers
often become enchanted with the first country that
captures their hearts and gives them license to be free.
For Wade Davis, it was Colombia. Now in a masterly new
book, Davis tells of his travels on the mighty Magdalena,
the river that made possible the nation. Along the way, he
finds a people who have overcome years of conflict
precisely because of their character, informed by an
enduring spirit of place, and a deep love of a land that
is home to the greatest ecological and geographical
diversity on the planet. Only in Colombia can a traveller
wash ashore in a coastal desert, follow waterways through
wetlands as wide as the sky, ascend narrow tracks through
dense tropical forests, and reach verdant Andean valleys
rising to soaring ice-clad summits
