Hello Chonger,
Since you have already read "One River" I would like to give you some more references to some of the the other mushroom works of <b>DIck</b> Schultes. This is mostly his work on the shrooms (a few on peyote) and does not include many of his papers on the Banisteriopsis vines and snuffs.

A further study by ethnobotanist Richard Evans Schultes provides numerous historical references regarding the Aztec use of the sacred mushrooms. These references were first described in many of the codices written by Spanish clergy and historians during and after the conquest. Noteworthy is the mis-identification of Panaeolus sphrinctrinus var. campanulatus as the teonan?catl mushroom of the Aztecs.

Hey everyone,
Have a pleasant time discovering the world of Richard Evans Schultes.
Did you know that Dick Schultes also carries a picture of a giant Amazonian cockroach in his wallet which also bares his name of Schultesii, named in his honor and when people would asked him if he had any children he would always show them the picture of the roach as a joke.
Also here is another biography of Schultes written before One River. This is taken from the New Yorker Magazine.
Kahn, E. J. 1992. (Mag.). Profiles: Jungle Botanist. New Yorker:35-58. June 1.
This biography traces the footsteps of the renown ethnobotanist Dr. Richard Evans Schultes from Harvard to his exploration of the Colombian Amazon and then back to Harvard. An amazing adventure in life. See Wade Davis.
