Description
In the summer of 1957, young Ben Curry traveled to Colombia on a Cambridge University-sponsored botanical expedition that took him to a remote region of the country where he became captivated with its natural beauty and its people. A short time later, he purchased a primitive 500-acre homestead and named the fledgling cattle ranch "Curucuc ," after a local species of songbird. This is Ben's story of his more than fifty years spent carving out a life in a Colombia few outsiders have experienced. Foreword by Louis de Berni res, author of Captain Corelli's Mandolin.
