Praise for Stone Offerings

"Our fascination with Machu Picchu lies in its interlocking pieces: mist wrapped around jungle peaks, stone fit perfectly against stone, and the holy wrought up with the natural world. ...The pages of Stone Offerings flow like an Incan pathway, images splicing together this most evocative of ancient wonders."
- Ethan todras-Whitehill, travel writer
