Synopsis
Product Description Presented as a narrative travelogue, Gringos in the Mist tells the story of oil exploration in the Ecuadorian Amazon and describes the efforts by local and indigenous groups to protect the cultural and ecological integrity of the rainforest. Gringos in the Mist also examines the social and environmental implications of tourism and raises fundamental questions regarding our need to travel. Review The story he tells is vividly detailed, often brilliantly said. This is an important, heartbreaking, useful book. -- William Kittredge About the Author Greg Gordon has travelled extensively throughout Latin America.
