great book titled 'river of doubt'


after leaving office in 1909 he took this dangerous trip on the amazon river and suffered a number of illnesses and contemplated suicide. he never really recovered his robust health and died relatively young at age 60 in 1919.

Great book, I have a copy! And I looked on a map, and saw that the Rio Roodevelt is still there in Brazil!

I'm amazed there hasn't been a movie made, but I suppose there's something kicking around Drvelolment Hell.
