      How James Fenimore Cooper Redefined “Pioneer”

      Feb 22, 2018

      Pioneer. The word often evokes esteem and reverence here in America, and those bold enough to earn the honorific are vaulted to an almost holy, prophet-like status. We cheer technological pioneers like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates; extol political pione

      FINALLY finished this book! I enjoy reading about early scientific explorations, and Bingham's search for ancient Inca cities that were mentioned in historical documents certainly qualifies. But this guy does NOT know how to tell a story. This book is a jumble of descriptions of historical records, travel preparations, natural history observations, and truly hair-raising travelogues. The difficulty in following the story was compounded by the hideously scanned electronic version from Google's Internet Library. If you want to read this, get your hands on a printed copy.
