Beskrivelse

The naturalist Charles Waterton (1782–1865), whose family owned plantations in Demerara, travelled widely in South America and the Caribbean. This 1825 account of his expeditions, reissued here in its 1828 second edition, describes research on Amazonian poison, the capture of an enormous snake, and being attacked by vampire bats.
