Product Information

At once an incredible adventure narrative and a penetrating biographical portrait, The River of Doubt is the true story of Theodore Roosevelt's harrowing exploration of one of the most dangerous rivers on earth. The River of Doubt--it is a black, uncharted tributary of the Amazon that snakes through one of the most treacherous jungles in the world. Indians armed with poison-tipped arrows haunt its shadows; piranhas glide through its waters; boulder-strewn rapids turn the river into a roiling cauldron. After his humiliating election defeat in 1912, Roosevelt set his sights on the most punishing physical challenge he could find, the first descent of an unmapped, rapids-choked tributary of the Amazon. Together with his son Kermit and Brazil's most famous explorer, C'ndido Mariano da Silva Rondon, Roosevelt accomplished a feat so great that many at the time refused to believe it. In the process, he changed the map of the western hemisphere forever. Along the way, Roosevelt and his men faced an unbelievable series of hardships, losing their canoes and supplies to punishing whitewater rapids, and enduring starvation, Indian attack, disease, drowning, and a murder within their own ranks. Three men died, and Roosevelt was brought to the brink of suicide. The River of Doubt brings alive these extraordinary events in a powerful nonfiction narrative thriller that happens to feature one of the most famous Americans who ever lived. From the soaring beauty of the Amazon rain forest to the darkest night of Theodore Roosevelt's life, here is Candice Millard's dazzling debut.

"A rich, dramatic tale that ranges from the personal to the literally earth-shaking." -Janet Maslin, The New York Times "[A] fine account . . . There are far too many books in which a travel writer follows in the footsteps of his or her hero-and there are far too few books like this, in which an author who has spent time and energy ferreting out material from archival sources weaves it into a gripping tale." - The Washington Post "[N]o frills, high-adventure writing . . . Millard's sober account is as claustrophobic as a walk through the densest jungle, and as full of vigor as Roosevelt himself." - Entertainment Weekly From the Trade Paperback edition., "A rich, dramatic tale that ranges from the personal to the literally earth-shaking." -Janet Maslin, The New York Times "[A] fine account . . .

    The item was exactly as described, in fact it looked brand new. Packaging was secure and protected the fragile contents well. It is a great value since the item is scarce and hard to find. Shipping was prompt. Very happy with this seller and going to keep following them.

    very rapid shipping, it was very well packed, and I received the books as stated. Certainly, the purchase is well worth the price as it was signed by the author, Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Caro. Very happy with purchase and will shop from seller again.
