''Up The Mazaruni For Diamonds'' is a book written by William J. Lavarre and published in 1919. The book is a memoir of Lavarre’s journey to the Mazaruni River in Guyana, South America, in search of diamonds. The book details his experiences navigating the treacherous river and the dangers he encountered along the way, including hostile indigenous people and deadly animals. Lavarre also describes the harsh living conditions he endured during his months-long expedition, including the extreme heat and humidity, lack of food and clean water, and the constant threat of disease. Despite the challenges, Lavarre persevered and eventually found a small amount of diamonds, which he sold for a profit. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of diamond prospecting in the early 20th century and the risks and rewards of pursuing such a venture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
