Condición: Used. Footprint Cusco & the Inca Trail (2004) Ben Box & Stephen Frankham ? Footprint Handbooks ISBN: 190347180X Condition: Used (spiritually weathered, like anyone who?s tried to hike at altitude) Step right up for your very own, gloriously pre-loved copy of Footprint Cusco & the Inca Trail , the trusty handbook for people who look at a perfectly comfortable chair and think, ?No thanks, I?d rather walk uphill for four days and sleep in a tent.? Written by Ben Box and Stephen Frankham, this 2004 edition promises maps, tips, and just enough historical context to make you feel guilty about how often you stop to wheeze. Between these mildly sun-faded covers lies everything you need to know about Cusco and the Inca Trail ? or at least what you needed to know in 2004, which is frankly perfect if you prefer your travel with a slight time-warp. Expect detailed descriptions of cobbled streets, altitude sickness politely described as ?a mild discomfort,? and an optimistic assumption that you?ll definitely be up for the ?optional? side hike that nobody in their right mind should tackle after lunch. This particular copy, sold by the ever-candid Crappy Old Books , has very clearly seen some things. The cover has that slightly softened, rounded look that only comes from being shoved into the top of a backpack one too many times. The spine may show a gentle curve that whispers, ?I?ve been to at least one hostel where the shower was a rumour.? Some pages might even bear the faint crinkle of rain, tears, or an ill-advised water bottle incident on day two of the trek. Inside, you?ll find: Maps that look like they were designed for people who think contour lines are a fun surprise. Accommodation listings that gently imply, ?You won?t sleep much, but you?ll remember it forever.? Cultural notes that reassure you that yes, Cusco is beautiful, and yes, the locals are watching you gasp for air with politely concealed amusement. Trail guidance that breezily calls a steep ascent ?challenging? in the same way Everest is ?a bit tall.? As a Used copy, this is not just a guidebook. It?s a veteran of previous life choices. Perhaps a former owner thoughtfully underlined ?allow time for acclimatisation? and then ignored their own notes. Perhaps there?s a faint smudge where someone tried to read about archaeological sites while eating something that was absolutely not ?mild? in any sense of the word. At Crappy Old Books , we don?t call this ?wear and tear.? We call it embedded narrative atmosphere . Expect: Corners: softened. Pages: slightly aged, like a fine wine or a tired tour guide. Cover: cosmetically scuffed, functionally magnificent. Ideal for: Aspiring Inca Trail heroes who want a guide that has clearly already survived more drama than they have. Armchair adventurers who intend to ?go one day? and, in the meantime, enjoy pointing at photos of Machu Picchu while sitting firmly at sea level. People who believe a brand-new guidebook is suspiciously clean and therefore untrustworthy. Anyone who likes their travel advice delivered with old-school charm, pre-smartphone optimism, and refreshingly limited battery anxiety. So, whether you?re actually planning to tackle the Inca Trail or just want to feel like the kind of person who might, this slightly scruffed, proudly seasoned Footprint Cusco & the Inca Trail is ready for its next assignment. Give it a new home, a new shelf, or a new backpack. It?s already survived one journey. It can probably survive you.
