SOUTHERN CROSS TO POLE STAR is an enduring adventure story of one of history's greatest rides. Aime Felix Tschiffely, a young Swiss living in Argentina, in the early 1990s, took two aging Creole horses on a 10,000-mile, 30-month journey over the Andes, through the wilds of Bolivia, across the Isthmus of Panama and on to Washington, D.C. Undetered by tropical fever, quicksand and bandits, Tschiffely realized a lifelong dream, and wrote classics of travel, history, romance and geography. "It is pretty certain that Ulysses, Marco Polo or Drake would have been hard put to keep up with Tschiffely. This is an heroic book." (The New York Times)
