Some may find it a little hard to get into because there's a lot of information Colonel Fawcett touches on, but for me it is the single most informative book that I myself have ever read.As a child I grew up expecting exploration to be like Indiana Jones, but my trips overseas taught me elsewise. Colonel Fawcett's book/journals only further illustrate my point because real life exploration is quite serious and dangerous, and often teaches you life lessons that you'll soon not forget. Some can be a choice of life & death.Fawcett's time spent in South America is something that I'd never heard of until only a few months ago and I learned of it simply by taking up a book and reading.
While in an airport terminal I bought Lost City of Z so I knew about Col. Fawcett. Anyone expecting this to be Indiana Jones will sadly be disappointed. If you love exploration, real roughing it, share a willingness to take risks along with history and study of man in one of the worst places on earth to survive this is an excellent read.
Written in an old style by the youngest son of Percy Fawcett, this is where much of the inspiration for the major motion picture adaptation of the Lost City of Z came from. The book was written at a time when it was still possible that the explorer was still alive and when many speculated he had gone native. It's a great insight to the man and his motivations as well.
Wonderful read, much seeming if not first hand by the man himself, making this a great first hand source and account. Because of this the telling is linear, no bouncing back and forth in time and place. The story begins with his first assignment as a cartographer to help determine a boundary in South America, and then goes to other assignments doing same for others. A very good way into the book there start to be ethnographic and geo political, the in even smaller scale nuances that seem to provoke the author that there is 'something there' that academics of his time had not imagined. Amazing astute observations of the vile corruption of the times and inhumanity to man, with the native peoples always losing, struck me many times how unfunny (and how that still happens) because of resources and greed. So it is far more than a put this foot in front of the other Indiana Jones fiction - this person has a conscience and compassion, no two dimensional character here, and in many places almost advocates for intoxicating and .enlightening aspects of native tribes and peoples. So be prepared to learn a little if not a lot very unpleasant history regarding the rubber trade and South American slavery. There were many parts about this that I found very difficult to read and doubt Hollywood will include?Any way, the lost City of Z doesn't come into the book until maybe the final quarter? No mention at all until then. Keep in mind that historically what was happening in the archeological world with the Maya, Egypt, Babylon, Minoan Crete, the crazes, the times... who knows what? maybe a lost world?I found the book a compelling account of his thoughts, his times, his travels, interests, personality. It functions as an anthropological work while retaining honest there at the times adventure. The historical character and understanding you can gain into a small part of the South American 'games of money and thrones' and it's impact on today should not be minimized.Well worth taking the time to read on many levels.
Still reading this fascinating book, and shall pass it on to other family members that are intrigued by some of the great mysteries in this world. The supplier described the condition of the book exactly, and it was shipped right on time. Thanks,
This book was a terrific read UNTIL I got so interested that I started to research it. I was so disappointed that it is a fraud. You have to do a couple of searches to find the fraud In my opinion that happened by FAWCETT S ONLY LIVING SON. It ruined the entire book and the history of it.
Fantastic account of one of the greatest explores of the early 20th Century, in South America. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves History, and a great adventure story!
Very interesting book. It sparks your imagination. A trip to the Amazon rainforest would be just the thing.It arrived quickly and in perfect shape.
