Realm of the Incas is an important and unique contribution to South American Studies; a beautifully photographed journey from the sacred snows of the Andes to the pristine reserves of the Amazon rainforest. This is a region that is still home to the indigenous peoples of the continent, that encompasses eight distinctive climates and habitats, and that includes both major Inca ruins and impressive Spanish Colonial architecture. In short, an area that captures the unique natural and cultural wonders of the continent.Max Milligan, the author and photographer, has been a guide, photographer, and documentary filmmaker in this part of South America for the last fifteen years. This book is the result of those years of travel, work, study and deep immersion into the life of the native peoples of the area. Noted historian John Hemming sets the scene with a substantial introduction that puts the book into a deeper historical and cultural context.Milligan, Max is the author of 'Realm of the Incas' with ISBN 9780789306494 and ISBN 0789306492.
