Mark Adam’s “Turn Right at Machu Picchu” is the topic this month. In 1911, Hiram Bingham III climbed into the Andes Mountains of Peru and “discovered” Machu Picchu. While history has recast Bingham as a villain who stole both priceless artifacts in addition to receiving credit for finding the great archeological site, Mark Adams sets out to retrace the explorer’s perilous path in search of the truth.
