Machu Picchu
Rare Books
"What is it that drives so many people to visit, sometimes with great difficulty, this remarkable place? It has an appeal that surely goes beyond the attraction of the usual honey pot. It provides a glimpse of a lost world, hidden from man until its discovery, in 1911, by Hiram Bingham. It is one of the most beautiful sights on earth but, as visitors swarm over the walls and terraces, it is in danger of becoming a victim of its own success. Get there soon, as there are rumors they will have to build a replica before the real Machu Picchu is trampled to death"--From photographer's essay.

The Manuscripts series is arranged alphabetically by author and title. The manuscripts include a selection of Silverberg's literary works, mostly dating from 1973-1995. Included in this series are: novels, anthologies, short stories, novellas, essays, articles, book reviews, interviews, pilot scripts, galley proofs, page proofs, and confirmation proofs. Most of the manuscripts in this series are typed and appear to be close too, if not, the final revision. Some of Silverberg's works found within this series include: Born with the dead, Capricorn games, Galactic dreamers, Gilgamesh the king, How they pass the time in Pelpel, The Nebula awards, New dimensions 2, 6, 7, and 8, Nightwings, Revolt on Alpha C, Sundance and other science fiction stories, and Time gate volume two: Dangerous interfaces.
