Description
Since its rediscovery in 1911 by the American Hiram Bingham, this World Heritage site has embodied the "lost city"--though half a million people find their way there every year. For the first time, David Drew offers a survey of the site, history of its exploration, and assessment of the city's meaning in one authoritative, portable volume.
