"Supposedly a true story, but probably greatly exaggerated. Death defying escapes occur about every third page. At least the author defies death, most of the expedition members fall prey to river rapids, cannibals and wild beasts. This story is hard to swallow as factual, but the ride is a thrill a minute."
