hardcover. Zustand: Very Good in Dustjacket. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. New York. 1983. Harcourt Brace & Jovanovich. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0151054630. 382 pages. hardcover. Photographs - Front cover: Kevin Horan, Picture Group, Inset: Mark London, Back cover: Mark London. Jack…et design by Bob Silverman. keywords: Latin America Travel Amazon. DESCRIPTION - At 5,000 feet the forest looks as if moths had feasted on a dark green carpet. Breat chunks have been chewed. .' The Amazon! How shall we think about this giant and legendary riverland, this final frontier? Is it the 'green hell' that has defeated the greed of fortune hunters for centuries or the fragile ecosystem that scientists warn will soon become a desert as red, dry, and sterile as Mars? To the hordes now burning their way into the world's largest remaining rain forest, the Amazon is their dream-a verdant roof two and a half million square miles, covering mineral and agricultural resources so vast that its riches could rocket Brazil to the status of a superpower by the end of this century. Authors Kelly and London combine brazen adventure with the most diligent and penetrating research ever attempted in an effort to anticipate the fate of the Amazon. Their story is told partly through the voices of the people who live and profit there and partly through their own testimony to land wars, gold rushes, and industrial development unchecked by ecological research and only barely controlled by law. The interviews begin in Brazil's great cities -with government officials and bureaucrats in Brasilia, intellectuals in Rio, and wealthy São Paulo businessmen whose money speaks loud in a land where foreign debt is the largest in the world. Their self-assured pronouncements, made at a far remove from the jungle itself, are the Amazon's official face. As Kelly and London travel to the frontier and deep into the wilderness beyond, that face changes as often and as abruptly as a simple object in a kaleidoscope: paper plans for land distribution are mediated not by the courts but by the guns of hired killers; the more the government tries to 'save' the Indians, the more Indians die; financial incentives for huge ranches have resulted in deserts that stretch to the horizon. Even the official maps of the Amazon are wrong. Throughout this unforgettable portrait of an invaded wilderness runs an unanswerable question: How much is gone? In the end, the authors come to realize that the question itself Is wrong. More important for us to know is how fast the land is going. Overlapping and conflicting ambitions are eating up the jungle at an exponential rate. Time may be running out. And only time will tell if the slow work of the researcher and the patient efforts of the farmer can balance the hurried plans of the powerful to decide whether dreamers and doers will profit in the Amazon-or destroy it utterly. inventory #3918.
