The return of the gods

More about the book

With more than 140 photographs, maps, models, and drawings, Von Dä niken applies the same fact-filled analysis to Nazca-- an ancient, isolated settlement deep in the Peruvian desert-- that launched his 1968 bestseller "Chariots of the Gods," He analyzes aerial views and closeups of extraordinary markings that stretch for miles, forming complex designs noticeable only from the air.
