Traven---wow----The Death Ship----The Treasure of the Sierra Madre---what classic adventure literature----and the movie (Treasure of Sierra Madre) wow, just doesn't get any more exciting. Imagine the life this guy led. Did you read Melville's Omoo? I didn't but I'm blown away that the guy (and I think it is autobiographical) was shipwecked (or jumped ship) and lived with cannibals. People do not have these intense adventures in this day and age.
"The Death Ship" is a personal favorite. Don't we live with cannibals? They just eat our vitality, not our flesh.
