Exploration Fawcett by Col Percy Fawcett
A lost city called 'Z'; lethal jungles; death-filled rivers: the last trip of a legendary explorer who was the inspiration for Indiana Jones.
Colonel Percy Harrison Fawcett was born in 1867 in Devon, England. At the age of nineteen he was given a commission in the Royal Artillery. He served in Ceylon for several years where he met and married his wife. Later he performed secret service work in North Africa. Fawcett found himself bored with Army life and learned the art of surveying, hoping to land a more interesting job. Then in 1906 came the offer from the Society: His ticket to adventure.
