Specificatii
From the southeast coast of South America through an expanse of
Peruvian sands en route to the West Coast, then onward through
Central American jungles and rainforest, and finally to New York,
Tschiffely's journey was considered impossible and absurd by many
newspaper writers in 1925. However, after two and a half years on
horseback with two of his trusty and tough steeds, this daring
trekker lived to tell his best-selling tale. Tschiffely's
10,000-mile journey was filled with adventure and triumph, but it
also forced the traveler to deal with tremendous natural and
man-made obstacles, as many countries in Central America were
war-torn. He traversed rivers and mountains in hurricanes and hail
storms, stopping to stay the night with farmers and villagers in
huts who often shared their mysterious and superstitious tales. He
ate dried goats' meat in a desolate town of Santiago del Estero,
watched illegal cockfights and vicious machete battles between
plantation workers in Jujuy, and was healed by an Indian herb
doctor in the mountains of Bolivia for his infection after
excavating graves; these obstacles have captured the hearts of
people from around the world. In addition to the remarkable details
of his travel expedition, Tschiffely's relationship with his
horses, Mancha and Gato, is perhaps the most endearing element of
the book, and his photos of the people and places he encountered
make Tschiffely's Ride the perfect travel companion for adventure
enthusiasts.
