Rio Tigre and Beyond
– The Amazon Jungle Medicine of Manuel Cordova,
by F.Bruce Lamb, author of ‘Wizard of the Upper Amazon’.
The true account of the Amazonian adventure of Manuel Cordova Rios, who was abducted by Native South American tribes people and trained as their new Shaman. Cordova died in 1978 on his ninety-first birthday and Bruce Lamb was lucky enough to have made many expeditions to see him during the 60s and 70s in order to record his extraordinary life experiences and now rare knowledge.
This sequel to ‘Wizard of the Upper Amazon’ also gives us an insight into the experience of the powerfully hallucinogenic compound ‘ayahuasca’, the plant used to gain healing and knowledge through the visions it induces.
This is a great true story of a shaman.
