" In the spring of 1982, Jorge Delano, a Venezuelan businessman and fledgling balloon pilot, led an expedition to the jungle highlands in the remote south eastern corner of his country. He was planning the first balloon ascension in Venezuela, and he was determined that it was going to be a memorable flight. ...From the jungle plateaus associated with Conan Doyle's 'Lost World'; from the windswept Caribbean archipelago of Los Roques; from the thin air at the height of the Venezuelan Andes and from the steamy depths of the great holes of Sari SAri Nama, the four expeditions chronicles in this book represent the natural wonders of a wild South American landscape still largely undiscoverd by outsiders." --from the dust jacket.
