| 2. | [no image] | The motorcycle diaries: A journey around South America from Verso Customer Review:  I randomly saw this book in my college book store and picked it up. You definitely won't regret getting it, it's almost as if you're with them on their adventure. |

| 3. |  | In Patagonia (Penguin Classics) from Penguin Classics Customer Review: I love this book. I read and re-read it several times. Bruce Chatwin's descriptions of the people he met were magical, and must also have reflected his effect on them. It was at times surreal, much like I imagine traveling through South America and the overwhelming beauty of Patagonia. This is a... |

| 7. |  | In Patagonia from Penguin (Non-Classics) Customer Review: I moved to Patagonia, on the Chilean side and have traversed the Andes north and south of here.

The earlier writer who... |

| 8. | [no image] | The Rough Guide to Peru (Rough Guides) from Routledge & Kegan Paul Books Customer Review: I've always liked Rough Guides. I just got back from Peru and used it extensively there. I also lived in Guatemala for a year, and it was very helpful. I will say, though, that the guide sometimes lacks in the food area, and gives less options for places to stay than I'd like. I also prefer having... |

Crow's "Epic of Latin America". here is a sample sentence (page 312) "how did the white man, with his superior intelligence, enter into this picture of religion?". he constantly refers to nomadic native americans,... |

| 10. | [no image] | The Cloud Forest: A Chronicle of the South American Wilderness (Travel Library, Penguin) from Penguin (Non-Classics) Customer Review:  With the exception of the last chapter, which comprises one hundred plus pages, this is basically a mental travelogue. I was hoodwinked by the back cover where it mentions the author traveled 20,000 miles through South America. It does not inform the reader that the majority of his movements... |
