Travelers often become enchanted with the first country that captures their hearts and gives them license to be free. For Wade Davis, it was Colombia. Now in a masterly new book, Davis tells of his travels on the mighty Magdalena, the river that made possible the nation. Along the way, he finds a people who have overcome years of conflict precisely because of their character, informed by an enduring spirit of place, and a deep love of a land that is home to the greatest ecological and geographical diversity on the planet.

Wade Davis love and longing for all things Colombian is infectious. This living narrative as told by many and written by Wade so expressively weaves the story and history of Colombia together like a brilliantly colored Wayuu mochila!! Love this book and love Colombia!
