Illuminated by the same joyful curiosity and erudition, lyric writing, and plain love of life that made a classic of Archie Carrs The Windward Road.'Peter Matthiessen'Archie Carr shows that he can write about people and forests engagingly and accurately without recourse to fake adventures or gringo condescension.'New York TimesArchie Carrs story is his love for the rural high tropics of Central America, revealed with grace and humor in the personal account of the years (194549) that he spent in Honduras with his family as a teacher at the Agricultural School run by the United Fruit Company.High Jungles and Low has four parts, each written in a distinctive style. 'The Land' is descriptive and includes a candid chapter on Yankee relations with Latin America. 'People in the Land' is anecdotal, with sketches of the hill people of Honduras. 'The Sweet Sea,' a short history of Nicaragua, reveals the biological drama of four centuries of turmoil in that country. 'Hall of the Mountain Cow' is Carrs onemonth diary of a 100mile walk along the Mosquito Shore, the rain forest of the Caribbean coast.
