Note 40 — STEPPES AND DESERTS.
Elizabeth Juliana Sabine translation
p. 20.—“The aspect of a vast inland sea.”
Nowhere are these inundations more extensive than in the network of rivers formed by the Apure, the Arachuna, Pajara, Arauca, and Cabuliare. Large vessels sail across the country over the Steppe for 40 or 50 miles.
