tygaribay 's review for:
I still remember Machu Picchu clearly from our family visit there when I was about 12, and I hope to return one day with my own family. This book is a fun example of the traveler in over his head, as a travel writer decides to take on the challenge of duplicating the hikes of the man who "discovered" Machu Picchu, Hiram Bingham. The author interweaves a retelling of the Bingham story with his own experiences trekking through the deep jungles of Peru. Very enjoyable for the beautiful descriptions of the ruins, the environment and the people.
