    In “The Lost City of the Monkey God: A True Story”, readers embark on a breathtaking journey about a 1940 discovery that remained a secret for decades, until the author and a team of scientists ventured forth to find the fabled lost city.

Praised for its “well-documented” and captivating story, this book aims to inform readers of the shocking discovery of an ancient city.
