Write a critical essay on the Amazon Basin in which you compare and contrast Peter Matthiessen's The Cloud Forest and Buddy Levy's River of Darkness. Include the following in your discussion: (1) the organization of the two books and general overview of what they deal with; (2) how do the two books differ in their description of the Amazon river and its peoples or, putting the case another way, how do they complement each other in contributing to your knowledge of Amazon cultures.
