O que acontece quando se unem dois grandes homens públicos, figuras históricas dos Estados Unidos e do Brasil, para realizar uma ousada e perigosa aventura: uma expedição pela selva amazônica por regiões nunca antes percorridas pelo homem? Essa é história da E xpedição Roosevelt-Rondon, realizada entre 1913-1914. Rondon havia descoberto o rio da dúvida numa expedição anterior e juntamente com Roosevelt liderou uma nova empreitada para explorar o longo curso do "Rio da Dúvida", renomeado mais tarde Rio Roosevelt. Ao retornar, fraco e doente, mas vivo, Theodore Roosevelt escreveu o livro " Through the Brazilian Wilderness" relatando todos os detalhes da perigosa aventura na selva amazõnica. Na Selva Brasileira é uma aventura épica, narrada por um de seus protagonistas. Uma leitura emocionante do começo ao fim.

Em 1913, Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919), que havia sido duas vezes presidente dos Estados Unidos, estava desiludido da política depois de ver frustrada nas urnas sua busca por um terceiro mandato. ESpírito aventureiro, ele já havia realizado safáris na África e explorado o interior ainda bravio da América do Norte. MAs dessa vez, para purgar suas frustrações, escolheu um desafio ainda maior: mapear um rio turbulento e sinuoso, de percurso ainda desconhecido, no coração da selva amazônica brasileira. Surgiu assim a Expedição Roosevelt-Rondon, em que o comando seria dividido entre o ex-presidente americano e o então coronel Cândido Rondon, o maior desbravador do interior do Brasil, responsável pela expansão da rede telegráfica nacional. Com base numa ampla pesquisa que consumiu quatro anos e abarcou diários, cartas, relatórios científicos, jornais e revistas da época, O rio da Dúvida narra passo a passo essa aventura única, que custou a vida de quatro homens e quase levou o próprio Roosevelt à morte no meio da mata. Da escolha dos cientistas participantes da expedição até seu dramático desfecho, da compra de equipamento inadequado aos problemas de escassez de comida, das divergências entre Roosevelt e Rondon sobre os objetivos da empreitada aos confrontos com índios hostis, tudo é narrado em detalhes nesta narrativa envolvente como um romance. Não foi por acaso que a comunidade científica internacional custou a acreditar no tamanho da façanha, que mudou o mapa da Amazônia brasileira, ao inscrever nele um rio até então desconhecido, o rio da Dúvida, rebatizado por Rondon de rio Roosevelt, nome que mantém até hoje. As informações exaustivas sobre a fauna, a flora e os povos indígenas da região explorada não obscurecem - pelo contrário, realçam - o drama humano envolvido nessa saga, em que sobressaem as gigantescas e contrastantes figuras de Roosevelt e Rondon. "Uma história rica e dramática, que envolve desde o íntimo dos personagens até acontecimentos devastadores." - Janet Maslin, The New York Times "Há poucos livros como este, em que um autor cria uma história tão envolvente depois de ter passado tanto tempo vasculhando material de arquivo." - The Washington Post

Roosevelt had originally planned to go on a speaking trip of Argentina and Brazil, followed by a cruise of the Amazon River. Instead, the Brazilian Government suggested that Roosevelt accompany famous Brazilian explorer Candido Rondon on his exploration of the previously unknown River of Doubt, the headwaters of which had only recently been discovered. Roosevelt, seeking adventure and challenge after his recent defeat for a third term in the White House, agreed. Kermit Roosevelt, Theodore's son, had recently become engaged and did not plan on joining the expedition but did on the insistence of his mother, in order to protect his father. The expedition started in Caceres, a small town on the Paraguay River, with 15 Brazilian porters (camaradas), the two leaders, Roosevelt's son, and American naturalist George Cherrie. They traveled to Tapirapua, where Rondon had previously discovered the Headwaters of the River of Doubt. From Tapirapua, the expedition traveled northwest, through dense forests and then later through the plains on top of the Parecis plateau. They reached the River of Doubt on February 27, 1914. At this point, due to a lack of food supplies, the Expedition split up, with part of the Expedition following the Ji-Parana River to the Madeira River. The remaining party then started down the River of Doubt.
