Lost City Of The Incas by Tom Bingham
A firsthand account of the discovery and exploration of a remote Andean citadel, recounting an expedition through rugged mountain terrain to reveal the superbly preserved terraces, temples, and urban layout of a vanished Inca civilization; it combines vivid descriptions of the site's architecture and dramatic setting with historical context and speculation about the site's purpose and the lives of its builders, and reflects on the broader cultural and archaeological significance of uncovering one of South America's greatest pre-Columbian centers.
