Candice Millard is an extremely talented writer who has produced a book that is both a character study and an adventure tale. Theodore Roosevelt and Candido Rondon (the Brazilian co-commander of the expedition) were both larger-than-life figures — men of deep principle and unflinching courage. Their expedition to map an unknown river in some of the most hostile territory on earth is a fascinating story of men stretched to the limits of human endurance.

Teddy Roosevelt is such a remarkable character. This was a terrific adventure through territory that is still very much undeveloped almost 100 yrs later. A very good read!
