| Summary, etc | Working from primary sources—journals, letters, and notes from the field—Anita Silvey takes readers into the heart of their expeditions to then-uncharted places such as the Amazon basin, China, and India. Driven by an all-consuming passion, the plant hunters traveled around the world, facing challenges at every turn: tropical illnesses, extreme terrain, and dangerous animals. They battled piranhas, tigers, and vampire bats. Even the plants themselves could be lethal! Then they tried to transport the plants—and themselves—home alive, creating an important legacy in science, medicine, and agriculture. |
