Description
Enthralled by the chronicle of a 16th-century Spanish monk, which said that the Incas flew like birds over the jungle, and by the recurring theme of flying in Peruvian folklore, Tahir Shah set out to discover whether the Incas really did fly or glide above the jungles of Peru. Or was it flight of a different kind inspired by powerful drugs?
