Colonel Percy Fawcett's quest to find the Lost City of Z has become the stuff of legend.
Colonel Percy H. Fawcett was known as the last of the great explorers In the first decades of the 20th century, Sir Colonel Percy Fawcett had been acclaimed as one of the last of the great amateur cartographers, travelling to unexplored corners of the globe to fill in the world’s last remaining blank spots with little more than a compass and a lust for adventure.
Neither Percy nor his son Jack were ever heard from again Fawcett had previously warned that his communications would cease once he reached a certain point in his journey, and for the next several months both his family and the media eagerly awaited his next update. But after two years passed without a hint of an update, rumours of the Colonel’s fate started to spread like wildfire. Some claimed Fawcett had simply perished on the trail.
