Lost Amazon : The Photographic Journey of Richard Evans Schultes

He published 10 books and more than 450 scientific articles and in 1992 received the gold medal of the Linnean Society of London, which is often equated with the Nobel Prize for botany.

His findings also influenced such cultural icons as Aldous Huxley, William Burroughs, and Carlos Castaneda.Davis, Wade is the author of 'Lost Amazon : The Photographic Journey of Richard Evans Schultes', published 2005 under ISBN 9781932771251 and ISBN 1932771255.
