Plot

This video focuses on the career of Hiram Bingham III, the man who made the western world aware of the lost treasures of the Inca World. Bingham traveled many times to Peru, documenting what he found and building a reputation for himself as an adventurer and man of action. Eventually, he parlayed this fame into a seat in the U.S. Senate. Besides a fascinating account of a great raconteur, this video is a stunning document of the beauty and breadth of the ancient Incan civilizations, including their cities at Vitcos, Mach Picchu, and Espiritu Pampa. ~ Rob Ferrier, All Movie Guide
