This early work by Alfred Russel Wallace was originally published in 1853 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'Palm Trees of the Amazon and their Uses' is an article detailing Wallace's observations during his travels in South America. Alfred Russel Wallace was born on 8th January 1823 in the village of Llanbadoc, in Monmouthshire, Wales. Wallace was inspired by the travelling naturalists of the day and decided to begin his exploration career collecting specimens in the Amazon rainforest. He explored the Rio Negra for four years, making notes on the peoples and languages he encountered as well as the geography, flora, and fauna. While travelling, Wallace refined his thoughts about evolution and in 1858 he outlined his theory of natural selection in an article he sent to Charles Darwin. Wallace made a huge contribution to the natural sciences and he will continue to be remembered as one of the key figures in the development of evolutionary theory.

Alfred Russel Wallace is most known for his contributions to the theory of evolution by natural selection. He is a British explorer, naturalist, and scientist. His extensive travels to remote parts of the world, particularly the Amazon rainforest, are especially well-known. In his book "Palm Trees of the Amazon and Their Uses," Wallace provides a full explanation of the many different types of palm trees that can be found in the Amazon rainforest as well as how the people utilize them. He details the many resources that the palms provide, such as food, shelter, medicine, and other essentials for surviving in the jungle. The social and cultural practices of the indigenous people who rely on these palm trees are also discussed by Wallace. He also talks about the financial potential of these palms and their importance in the global trade of other goods. Throughout the whole book, Wallace emphasizes the need of preserving the Amazon rainforest and its diversity of plant and animal life. He calls attention to the dreadful consequences that deforestation and resource exploitation may have on the environment and the lives of indigenous people who depend on it. The book "Palm Trees of the Amazon and Their Uses" adds a lot to our knowledge of the Amazon rainforest and the value it has for both the locals and the rest of the world.
