A good, but difficult, read X
September 22 2010
A fascinating compliation of Percy Fawcett's adventures and letters home from South America. Keep in mind the time it was written, as many terms and attitudes are offensive nowadays. Usually I tear through books like this, but many foreign words and some quirky language useage made it slow going for me. You'll enjoy thi sif you like tales of adventure with a decidedly British flair.
