Reader recommendation: Turn Right at Machu Picchu

Monitor readers share their favorite book picks.

By Jayne I. Hanlin, St. Louis

Mark Adams uses a conversational style, punctuated with some comical descriptions (鈥渇ollowing a train of photogenic llamas reporting for duty鈥) in Turn Right at Machu Picchu.聽聽The book is a triple interweaving of Spanish/Inca history, the account of Hiram Bingham III (Machu Picchu鈥檚 鈥渄iscoverer鈥), and the author鈥檚 own arduous treks in Peru. Now I can鈥檛 wait to make my own discoveries on my upcoming trip there.
