The creature in the map
There were some interesting ideas laid out in this book. But the structure was a mess and the blending of travel writing and historical reference was incongruous. I also found many of the arguments posited to be a stretch and so marinated in academic theory craft as to leave this reader dubious of the conclusions drawn.
The reason I read the book was I had expressed interest in learning more about the origin story of El Dorado after reading The Lost City Of Z. My stepfather, who reviews books, gave me his copy. I do feel like I better understand some of the origin story.
