West will talk about the trip he led called: 
The 2012 National Geographic Amazon Express

This was the first expedition to paddle the entire 4200 mile length of the Amazon River from its newly discovered most distant source in the Peruvian Andes to the Atlantic Ocean in northern Brazil. We logged the first expedition from the Mantaro River source, the second expedition to complete the Mantaro River and the fastest expedition to paddle the complete Amazon in 111 days.

West will also have copies of his new book about the expedition available for sale, and to be personally signed by the author. He offers a discounted rate for pre-orders, if you want to contact him directly at west@westhansen.com to make arrangements.
