This was really good, well written and incredibly well researched. Grann explores the mystery behind Colonel Percy Fawcett's disappearance into the Amazon in 1925; he tells not only Fawcett's story, but also the tales of the searchers who went looking for him, many of whom also never returned. Finally, Grann goes into the jungle himself looking for answers. The book is captivating and vivid and brings both Fawcett and the jungle itself to life. Highly recommended.
