MYTHOLOGY
"For hundreds of years, the story of the legendary Inca city of Vilcabamba lay buried in old Spanish chronicles. The ancient records tell of a young Inca king, Manco Inca, who fled deep into the Amazon after the Spaniards conquered his empire. There Manco built a city in the jungle that held out for the next 36 years, until the Spaniards finally overwhelmed it in 1572.
Kim MacQuarrie has fashioned an unforgettable history of the Spanish conquest, and the search for the lost city of Vilcabamba. "The Last Days of the Incas" brings one of the most heroic uprisings in history vividly back to life."
