The real land of El Dorado, deep in the Amazon rainforest, is a far cry from the mythical city of gold: though its soil could potentially yield billions of dollars, Guyana is a nation of gilded paupers, one of the very poorest countries in the western hemisphere.In this adventurefilled narrative, journalist Marc Herman takes us down a supply road in a limping cargo truck, treks into a muggy and muddy mine on foot, and soars above the forest canopy in a skittering plane. He falls in with a rowdy crew of gold miners who measure manliness by the number of times theyve had malaria, and wear their life savings in the form of oversized rings and huge gold necklaces. He also penetrates the corporate faade of international stripmining operations, which despite tremendous technological and political power have failed to alleivate the areas poverty. Searching for El Doradois an eyeopening look at the scandals, the business, the mythology of goldreaveling a fascinating, contradictory part of the world and of the human psyche.
