{"product_id":"9781842125854-retail-lost-city-of-the-incas","title":"Lost City of the Incas","description":"In 1911 Hiram Bingham, a pre-historian with a love of exotic destinations, set out to Peru in search of the legendary city of Vilcabamba, capital city of the last Inca ruler, Manco Inca. With a combination of doggedness and good fortune he stumbled on the perfectly preserved ruins of Machu Picchu perched on a cloud-capped ledge 2000 ft above the torrent of the Urumbamba River. The buildings were of white granite, exquisitely carved blocks each higher than a man. Bingham had not, as it turned out, found Vilcabamba, but he had nevertheless made an astonishing discovery which he described in his bestselling book LOST CITY OF THE INCAS.","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48548960993499,"sku":"9781842125854-RETAIL","price":21.24,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e7f9a50c-a1c5-4992-a499-58d4cce4150d.jpg?v=1775142691","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781842125854-retail-lost-city-of-the-incas","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
