5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent book I read years ago, and keep reading!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Emerald Rain (Paperback)
Read this book many many years ago, and really loved it! It was about a prim and proper socialite from Europe who retained a guide to lead her up the Amazon, to meet her fiance. As you'd expect, the fiance was evil, and the guide was a dream. What I really liked about this book was watching the heroine "grow up" as she learned first hand the atrocities of colonialism (and in particular, her fiance's brutality) on the local people. I have always felt that this book would be worth a rerelease. It was published in 1991 -- don't let the date fool you, though -- it's not one of those typical '80s romances where the hero is a brute. Far from it. If you can find this book at a used book store, grab it!
