FOLLOWING THE CONQUISTADORES
Up the Orinoco and Down the Magdalena
By H. J. MOZANS, A. M., Ph. D. Illustrated. 8vo, cloth, gilt top, uncut
edges. Price $3.00 net. By mail $3.20.
"His pages breathe the poetry of travel, the romance of Sir
John Mandeville, tempered by the moderation of scientific
research. This is a very model of a travel book, and the
author is to be congratulated on a result that will insure a
wide public for the promised sequel."--_The World_, London,
England.
"The book is beyond question the most valuable of all the
books on South America which has appeared. It is as
interesting as a novel, full of entertaining anecdote and of
real value to the student. It contains some maps and
excellent illustrations from photographs."--_The Call_, San
Francisco, Cal.
"This is a remarkably interesting book, leading us through a
region little known to the majority of English travelers,
and possessing, in consequence, that charm of novelty in
which works of the same description are occasionally
deficient."--_The Standard_, London, England.
"The reader will find this trip with the author, "Up the
Orinoco and Down the Magdalena," as agreeable and
instructive as a personally conducted visit to the heart of
the Andes."--_Evening Transcript_, Boston, Mass.
"This volume, remarkable alike for its instructive qualities
and the excellent composition, will open a vista of delight
to the reader who relishes travel."--_The News_, Charleston,
S. C.
"Dr. Mozans sees the country with the trained and
experienced eye of a world traveler and with the well
stocked mind of the lover of literature. The past is linked
with the present, the unknown with the known, and poetically
appreciated in a way that is most delightful."--_The
Tribune_, Chicago, Ill.
"The author, a traveler of many years of experience, who has
explored strange corners of the globe in every zone,
combines with accurate observation and a facile power of
description a knowledge of history that enables him to
illuminate his work with something of the romance that
attaches to the tales of the conquistadores in whose trail
he followed on this journey. The resulting book is one that
gives the reader a complete new set of impressions and ideas
concerning Venezuela and Columbia and the great rivers that
water these still unsettled lands."--The _Times Star_,
Cincinnati, Ohio.
"Not since the appearance of Humboldt's "_Personal Narrative
of Travels in the Equinoctial Regions of America_" has the
fertile and romantic region of _Tierra Firma_--the scene of
the exploits of some of this most illustrious of the
_Conquistadores_--been so fully and so vividly described as
by Doctor Mozans in his instructive and fascinating volume
"_Up the Orinoco and Down the Magdalena_.""--_Bulletin of
the Pan-American Union._
Along the Andes and Down the Amazon
By H. J. MOZANS, A. M., Ph. D. With an Introduction by THEODORE
ROOSEVELT. Illustrated. 8vo, cloth, gilt top, uncut edges. Price $3.50
net. By mail $3.70
"It was a great project and a grand journey, but we do not
recall any writer who could describe it so delightfully as
Dr. Mozans. He has not only an irresistible literary charm,
but he is so saturated with knowledge of what he writes
about that all he writes has an irresistible
interest."--_The Herald_, Glasgow, Scotland.
"Readers of Dr. Mozans' book have been impressed by the
remarkable, almost amazing, erudition shown in it. It has
also a modernity that is unusual in scholarly persons. Dr.
Mozans seems to have been everywhere and studied everything.
His especial interest in life has been thoroughly to
acquaint himself with the history, antiquities and people,
past and present, of northern South America."--_The Literary
Digest_, New York City.
"Dr. Mozans writes English after our own style, and has a
point of view half philosophical and half poetic. He is
highly sensitive to the mystery of the dead civilizations of
the Andean plateaux, as well as to the abounding life of the
modern States, and the book generally is the pleasantest
account of South America we have encountered for a
considerable time."--_The Standard_, London, England.
"To read his book is not only to travel with him to strange
places but also to be steeped in good literature."--_The
Record-Herald_, Chicago, Ill.
"Great learning is often allied with great simplicity. It is
so in the case of Dr. Mozans. He is bubbling over with
information about the achievements of the Spanish
conquistadores and the subsequent history of the lands over
which they established their sway."--_The Field_, London,
England.
"Whether Dr. Mozans' volume is resorted to for solid
information or mere entertainment it will well repay the
reading."--The _New York Times_.
"A book which every traveler to South America, especially
every traveler to the west coast of the continent, will wish
to have in his handbag."--_Bulletin of the Pan-American
Union._
"This is a delightful book from every
standpoint."--Ex-President Roosevelt, in the Introduction to
Dr. Mozans' book.
"Like the well-known works of Waterton and Humboldt on South
America, the two books by Dr. Mozans are sure to have a
permanent value and to be recognized as soon as known, as
authorities on the countless subjects discussed in their
illuminating pages with such fairness and
scholarship."--_The Freeman's Journal_, New York City.
