THE NORTH-WEST AMAZONS THE NORTH-WEST AMAZONS NOTES OF SOME MONTHS SPENT AMONG CANNIBAL TRIBES BY THOMAS WHIFFEN F.R.G.S., F.R.A.I.
(14TH HUSSARS) NEW YORK DUFFIELD AND COMPANY 1915 Printed in Great Britain TO THE MEMORY OF THE LATE DR. ALFRED RUSSEL WALLACE, O.M.
THESE NOTES ARE DEDICATED PREFACE In presenting to the public the results of my journey through the lands about the upper waters of the Amazon, I make no pretence of challenging conclusions drawn by such experienced scientists as Charles Waterton, Alfred Russel Wallace, Richard Spruce, and Henry Walter Bates, nor to compete with the indefatigable industry of those recent explorers Dr. Koch-Grünberg and Dr. Hamilton Rice.
