Sinopsis

Peru was in a state of siege, Halley's Comet was making its cyclical reappearance for the first time in seventy-two years, and the throngs of tourists that would soon elevate Machu Picchu to a major world tourist destination had not yet descended upon the Sacred Valley. Before the luxury hotels, high-speed trains and express helicopters, an independent traveler armed with a poem encounters the obstacles and rewards of a puzzled trail in the quest to reach Machu Picchu, the legendary Lost City of the Incas. With travels through the highlands of Peru; including Cusco, Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu and Puno; with a circuitous route through La Paz, Copacabana and Lake Titicaca, Bolivia.  Past and present converge in a story that is true for all times.

Finalist, Foreword Reviews Magazine, Book of the Year Award / Travel Essays. 2012.
