I've just started "Brazilian Adventure" by Peter Fleming, Ian's brother. It is beautifully written with a healthy dose of Waugh-like humour.
Simultaneously (because it's something I always do...), I am enjoying "The Philosophy of an Explorer" by Erling Kagge. This is a series of essays that reminds one of the important little details that will make your wilderness experience safer and more fulfilling. Again, it is beautifully written (translated!) and fascinating in its scope.
