Beschreibung

In "Through the Brazilian Wilderness," Theodore Roosevelt documents his ambitious journey through the uncharted territories of Brazil alongside Brazilian explorer Cândido Rondon. This groundbreaking work combines vivid first-person narratives with meticulous scientific observations as Roosevelt seeks both adventure and knowledge in the heart of the Amazon rainforest. The book is characterized by its engaging prose and rich descriptions of the diverse flora and fauna, while also reflecting the broader themes of exploration and the interplay between civilization and nature, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century imperialism and nationalism. Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, was an avid naturalist and conservationist whose profound love for the outdoors deeply influenced his writing. This expedition was part of his post-presidential life, where he sought exhilaration and purpose amid his ambitions for environmental preservation. His background in politics and robust personality lend an unmatched eagerness to both his explorations and literary endeavors, showcasing his relentless pursuit in understanding and protecting nature while forging an enduring legacy in the field of conservation. "Through the Brazilian Wilderness" is not merely a tale of adventure; it is a landmark exploration of human perseverance, ecological awareness, and the complexities of cross-cultural interactions. It is highly recommended for readers interested in travel writing, environmental studies, and the psychological motivations behind exploration, offering significant insights into an essential chapter of American and Brazilian history.

    Imagine having all of you needs reduced to the things you can't live without; food, water, and shelter. 
    In Footprint of a Heart, Shayla Paradeis, whose trail name is Kiddo, ventures off the path of musical theater at age 21 and moves from Manhattan to Montana. Trading tap shoes for hiking boots, she sculpts a life outdoors as a long-distance hiker. By age 34, she hiked the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide Trails, the Haute Route in the Alps, and the Te Araroa across New Zealand. As well as thousands of joyful miles running across the land of her dreams, Glacier National Park. All without a smart phone. 
    Kiddo shares the trailside moments of five long journeys, including barren deserts, windy ridges above tree line, ocean tides in estuaries, narrow spaces between the painted lines of highways and guardrails, and countless peaks, passes, meadows, and valleys. Her ventures take her through swarms of bugs, knee-deep mud, every kind of precipitation imaginable, and the threat of rattlesnakes, bears, charging bulls, and one angry mama turkey. 
    Journeys are often more internal than external. As she walks, she learns that counting miles can be a self-measurement as dangerous as body-image or money. The need to connect is the true north. With an openness taught through the trees, she experiences a fulfillment she never dreamed possible. Trails are no longer a thing to do, they're a place to be.
