70 reviewsTravelling through Peru, tracing the history of the Incas from their royal cities of Cusco & Machu Picchu to their mythic origin in Lake Titicaca, Ronald Wright explores a land of contrasts – between Spanish & Indigenous, past & present, coastal desert & snow-crowned Andes.
Yet Wright is equally interested in the chance encounters of the road. With admiration, humour & a wry anger, he brings to life the complex culture of an ancient land seeking its place in the modern world.
