Abstract:
Mark Adams, a travel and adventure magazine editor, decides to investigate claims that Hiram Bingham, the 1911 discoverer of Machu Picchu, smuggled out artifacts and stole credit for finding the site. With a crusty Australian survivalist and several Quechua-speaking, coca-chewing mule tenders as his guides, Adams travels through Peru, finding a still-undiscovered country, as well as an answer to the question that has nagged scientists since Bingham's time: Just what was Machu Picchu? c2011.
