In Quest of Lost Worlds : Five Archeological Expeditions 1925-1934

This book covers five different archeological expeditions: the discovery of Tin Hinan's tomb in the Hoggar Mountains of the Sahara (1925-26); the excavation of Jupiter Ammon in Libya (1926-28); a short trip into Tripolitania, Libya (1931); an encounter with the stone-age Lacandon Indians in Chiapas, Mexico (1932-33); and a search for King Solomon's mines in Ethiopia (1933-34). Some of this material is covered in his other books, but the details and the telling here are radically different: this book illuminates the others, and vice versa. But if you buy only one de Prorok book, this is it.
