Excerpt from book: CHAPTER VIII. ASSASSINATION OF FRANCISCO PIZARRO. in the development of the resources of the country, and in fostering and protecting the interests of the Spanish colonists, the Marquis gave but little heed to the proceedings of the Almagrist faction. Whether it was that he despised them, or considered it hopeless to attempt their conciliation, or was over-confident in his ability to foil their machinations, certain it is that he treated them with profound indifference. Or it may be that, conscious of his innocence of the death of Almagro, he did not suppose that their vengeance would be directed against one who had given them no special cause of complaint. At all events, he made no attempt either to attach them to his side, or to crush them utterly. He allowed them to go where they would and do as they would, so that before long upwards of two hundred of these men of Chili (as they were called) gathered in Los Reyes, where they found a suitable leader in Almagro's former major domo, Juan de Rada; and a centre of hope, pride, and ambition in the young Almagro, who was now grown up to the age of manhood, and was gifted with all the qualities PLOTS OF THE ALMAGRISTS. 233 that secure the affections of soldiers. He was bold, liberal, frank of speech and manner, of a graceful person, and skilled in all martial exercises. That the Marquis should have permitted so dangerous a rival to remain in Los Reyes, and to have drawn around him a group of needy and desperate cavaliers, is a proof that he was by no means so astute and suspicious as some English historians have represented. He has been censured for not purchasing their support for himself by presents and favours, but it seems to be forgotten that he could have done'So only at the expense of his own loyal adherents....

The Incas who considered themselves to be the children of the sun had an enormous civilization, covering the vast reaches of countries like Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru. The city of cuzco was considered to be the capital of the powerful and glorious Incas. Even after more than five centuries passed, the Incas have kept their traditions, culture, language and outfits which you will partly get familiar with in this photo collection taken at Cusco. It will be a delightful journey. The book of "the children of the sun", is a collection of photos taken by an analog camera recorded on negatives and therefore displays natural and documented images of the Indian Inca's life.

Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING TRAVEL MEMOIR What happens when an unadventurous adventure writer tries to re-create the original expedition to Machu Picchu? 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 and credit for finding the great archeological site, Mark Adams set out to retrace the explorer’s perilous path in search of the truth—except he’d written about adventure far more than he’d actually lived it. In fact, he’d never even slept in a tent. Turn Right at Machu Picchu is Adams’ fascinating and funny account of his journey through some of the world’s most majestic, historic, and remote landscapes guided only by a hard-as-nails Australian survivalist and one nagging question: Just what was Machu Picchu?
