"Exploration of the Valley of the Amazon, Part 1 (of 2)" by Herndon and Gibbon is a two-volume work published in 1854. U.S. Navy Lieutenants William Lewis Herndon and Lardner Gibbon led a daring 1851 expedition into the vast, uncharted Amazon Valley. Setting out from Lima, Peru, the party split into two groups to cover more territory. Herndon's journey spanned 4,366 miles through wilderness ranging from sea level to over 16,000 feet. Their detailed reports became an international best-seller, with tens of thousands of copies printed by presidential order.
