Description: Adams gives a fascinating and funny account of his journey through some of the world's most majestic, historic, and remote landscapes guided only by a hard-as-nails Australian survivalist and one nagging question: Just what was Machu Picchu?
Review Quotes: Praise for Turn Right at Machu Picchu
"[An] engaging and sometimes hilarious book."--The New York Times Book Review"A serious (and seriously funny) travelogue, a smart and tightly written history, and an investigative report into perhaps the greatest archaeological discovery in the last century."--NationalGeographic.com "An engaging, informative guide to all things Inca."--Entertainment Weekly "Adams deftly weaves together Inca history, Bingham's story, and his own less heroic escapade....Those favoring a quirkier retelling [of Bingham's exploits] will relish Mr. Adam's wry, revealing romp through the Andes."--The Wall Street Journal "Quite funny and unpretentiously well informed...The perfect way to acknowledge the lost city's one hundredth birthday."--Christian Science Monitor ("Editor's Choice") "[An] entirely delightful book."--The Washington Post "With a healthy sense of humor...Adams unearths a fascinating story, transporting his readers back to 1911, when Yale professor Hiram Bingham III hiked the Andes and stumbled upon on of South America's most miraculous and cloistered meccas."--NPR.org
