Description
Redmond O’Hanlon recounts his manic, four-month expedition up the Orinoco River and across the Amazon Basin, seeking to trace the steps of 19th-century explorers and encounter the reputedly violent Yanomami tribe. While preparing for natural hazards like vipers, piranhas, and deadly diseases, O’Hanlon quickly discovers that the deepest jungle is less volatile than the human element. His photographer and crew descend into absurdity, making this humorous travelogue less about surviving nature and more about surviving your companions in the world’s most remote places.
