House of the Tiger King
"Take one obsessive explorer, one hard-bitten Nam vet, and 17 weeks in some of the deepest jungle in the world. Having searched Ethiopia for the gold mines of King Solomon, and learned magic from the "Godmen" of India, author and explorer Tahir Shah feels sufficiently confident to undertake his most arduous journey yet: through Peru's infamous Madre de Dios jungle in search of Paititi, the greatest lost city on Earth. What he doesn't reckon on, however, is his guide: Richard Fowler – ex-Vietnam vet, combat specialist and jungle survivalist par excellence." - Edinburgh International Film Festival 2004
