  Into the Darién

  The Darién Gap—a lawless strip of jungle between Panama and Colombia—has swallowed countless travelers. Few who enter ever make it out. 
  When a small charter plane crashes in the heart of this untamed wilderness, four survivors are left with no rescue, no supplies beyond what they can carry, and no choice but to trek through one of the most dangerous places on earth. 
  Lena, a battle-hardened pilot, and her son Noah, an ambitious young co-pilot, were supposed to be running a routine flight. Alex, their wealthy passenger, claimed he was on a medical research expedition—but his obsession with a rare jungle orchid hints at another agenda. And Amaia, a quiet woman with a past she doesn’t share, seems to know far more about the land—and the people who control it—than she’s willing to admit. 
  The jungle closes in fast. Days bring unbearable heat, venomous snakes, and rivers teeming with predators. Nights echo with the sound of something stalking them just beyond the firelight. Tensions splinter the group as distrust grows and survival becomes a brutal negotiation. 
  Every step forward is a gamble. Every decision could be the one that gets them killed. And in the Darién, the most dangerous thing they’ll face might not be the jungle at all. 
  Into The Darién is a gripping survival thriller of greed, loyalty, and endurance, where the secrets people keep are as deadly as the terrain.

  North America was not empty nor were its inhabitants savages when Europeans arrived in 1492. Quite the opposite, North America was thickly populated by indigenous people who lived in clean cities, had a thriving economy, and transformed the landscape into bountiful productivity. Forgotten Landscapes reveals the incredible extent to which Native Americans manipulated and shaped their surrounding environs through agricultural practices and urban engineering, resulting in one of the most prosperous civilizations of their time.Well before European contact, North American cities and villages were bound together by an intricate trade network. Today, Spiro Mound in rural Oklahoma is a few piles of dirt, not on the road to anywhere. But at the time of the Mississippian civilization, about a thousand years ago, it was one of the largest cities in the world. With the controlled use of fire, Native Americans had transformed thick forests into open woodlands and expanded the ranges of prairies. Through organized hunting, Natives controlled the populations of prey animals such as passenger pigeons, and when Native populations grew large enough, they developed agriculture including irrigated crops, and even orchards. In this fascinating and overdue book, author Stanley A. Rice shows his audience the Pre-Columbian landscape of America that has been largely forgotten.
