Description
Colombia, a land of contrasts, where the beauty of the first conquistadores' paradise is juxtaposed with the hellish reality of a byword for violence. Tom Feiling's journey through the country, down roads once too dangerous to travel, reveals the tangled fabric of a nation rebuilding itself after decades of turmoil. Through conversations with people from former guerrilla fighters to nomadic tribesmen and millionaires, Feiling unpicks the complexities of Colombia, creating a stunning work of reportage, history and travel writing.
