From the award-wining author of The Last London and Lights Out for the Territory, a journey in the footsteps of our ancestors.

In The Gold Machine, Iain Sinclair and his daughter travel through Peru, guided by - and in reaction to - an ill-fated colonial expedition led by his great-grandfather, Arthur Sinclair. The incursions of Catholic bounty hunters and Adventist missionaries are contrasted with today's ecotourists and short-cut vision seekers. The family history of a displaced Scottish highlander fades into the brutal reality of a major land grab. The historic thirst for gold and the establishment of sprawling coffee plantations leave terrible wounds on virgin territory.

What was once portrayed as an intrepid adventure is transformed into a shocking tale of the violated rights of indigenous people, secret dealings between London finance and Peruvian government, and the collusion of the church in colonial expansion. A beautiful valley is now the property of a British corporation. In Sinclair's haunting prose, no place escapes its past, and nor can we.

Needs to be ironed
Size: 16"-16.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: Grey Mist
It doesn’t come with wash/dry instructions. I washed in warm water and dried on normal setting. Came out horrible with many wrinkles. Looked up instructions and it says cool wash and 10 minutes of drying. It will for sure need to be ironed. Otherwise a very nice shirt.

Great looking shirts
Size: 16.5" Neck 34"-35" Sleeve, Color: Midnight
I'm pretty picky with dress shirts and the way they fit- these knock it out of the park. Incredibly comfortable, wrinkle resistant, and at the end of the day, just looks professional and high quality. Fits true to size.

Nice shirt.

Quality seems good for price. Fit fine around chest and belly but tight in shoulders and arms.
