Excerpt from The Land of Bolivar, Vol. 1 of 2: Or War, Peace, and Adventure in the Republic of VenezuelaVenezuela lies so much out of the beaten track of tourist and traveller, that but little is known in Europe of its scenery, its products, or its people. A residence of eighteen months in this picturesque country, full of mineral wealth, and rich in other natural resources, yet almost untrodden by the man of science, may perhaps be considered sufficient apology for this attempt to add to the scanty knowledge we possess of a land bordering on British Guiana, and opposite to Trinidad, and from which, it is more than probable, the meat-supply of our West Indian possessions must, sooner or later, be derived.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
