Voyages ExtraordinairesBook 45 of 50
The Mighty Orinoco
The book tells the story of a young man's search for his father along the then-uncharted Orinoco river of Venezuela. The next contains all the ingredients of a classic Verne scientific-adventure tale: exploration and discovery, humor and drama, dastardly villains and intrepid heroes, and a host of near-fatal encounters with crocodiles, jungle fever, Indians and outlaws - all set in a wonderfully exotic locale. - Jacket cover
