What is Jungleland : a mysterious lost city, a WWII spy, and a true story of deadly adventure about?
"I began to daydream about the jungle...." On April 6, 1940, explorer and future World War II spy Theodore Morde (who would one day attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler), anxious about the perilous journey that lay ahead of him, struggled to fall asleep at the Paris Hotel in La Ceiba, Honduras. Nearly seventy years later, in the same hotel, acclaimed journalist Christopher S. Stewart wonders what he's gotten himself into. Stewart and Morde seek the same answer on their quests: the solution to the riddle of the whereabouts of Ciudad Blanca, buried somewhere deep in the rain forest on the Mosquito Coast. Imagining an immense and immaculate El Dorado--like city made entirely of gold, explorers as far back as the Spanish conquistador HernГЎn Cortés have tried to find the fabled White City. Others have gone looking for tall white cliffs and gigantic stone temples--no one found a trace. Legends, like the jungle, are dense and captivating....
