Guyana Guyane and Suriname by Ben Box

Guyana Guyane and Suriname by Ben Box

The Guianas are an intriguing combination of Calypso and palm trees, Dutch place names, Hindu temples, French cafes, and Amerindian rainforest villages. Whether you're exploring the incredible Kaieteur Falls or admiring the wooden colonial buildings of Paramaribo, Footprint's Handbook covers all the sights in this undiscovered region.

One of the first assignments Ben Box took as a freelance writer in 1980 was subediting work on the South American Handbook. The plan then was to write about contemporary Iberian and Latin American affairs, but in no time at all the lands south of the Rio Grande took over, inspiring journeys to all corners of the subcontinent. Ben has contributed to newspapers, magazines and learned tomes, usually on the subject of travel, and became editor of the South American Handbook in 1989. Having a doctorate in Spanish and Portuguese studies from London University, Ben maintains a strong interest in Latin American literature. In the British summer he plays cricket for his local village side and year round he attempts to achieve some level of self-sufficiency in fruit and veg in a rather unruly country garden in Suffolk.
