Dear Mike:
If you are interested in even more detailed map of Brazilian Amazon, I
would suggest "Projeto Radambrasil - Amazonia Legal", which is divided
into two charts, and the scale is 1:2,500,000 (1cm = 25km).
They are pretty good, even for some small igarapes (=streams) names.
I also found one piece of "Brazilian Ecosystems", the book describing
every Brazilian Bio-Region in detail (many color photos, plant and
animals discussed in detail, with scientific names), like: Amazon
Rainforest, Atlantic Rainforest, Pantanal, and many others. I once
mentioned it to you, if you wish a copy, pls let me know.
