Title: Fascinating and Compelling
Product review: I couldn't put down Candice Millard's engaging account of Theodore Roosevelt's journey through a hostile and unexplored region of the Amazon along the treacherous River of Doubt. It is an amazing tail that conveys the horror, adventure and triumph Roosevelt and his fellow explorers must have experienced.The account is made even more interesting because of the information Millard weaves through her narrative about the river and Amazon, both of which are central characters in this story. Her experience as a writer for the National Geographic is a real plus.I recommend this book to readers curious about Pres. Roosevelt, South America, exploration in the early 1900s, or who may simply love a story of adventure and triumph. This book would appeal to them all.
