Jungle of Stone: The True Story of Two Men, Their Extraordinary Journey, and the Discovery of the Lost Civilization of the Maya by William Carlsen

5.0

Well written and a great account of how the ancient Mayan civilization came to be recognized by the greater public globally. The included illustrations done by Catherwood are absolutely stunning, and for me were the highlight of the book. It does a good job of talking both about the Mayan ruins and giving background into catherwood and stephens and their journeys around the world.
