Set against the backdrop of post-WWII geopolitical tensions, this narrative explores the Inter American Geodetic Survey (IAGS), a U.S. Army initiative aimed at mapping Latin America to counteract Communist influence. The author, a Geodesist hired in 1968, recounts his experiences in the Panama Canal Zone and the challenges faced while surveying over 10 million square miles of largely uncharted and rugged territory. Blending personal anecdotes with historical accuracy, the book captures the adventurous spirit of the mission and its significance in shaping U.S.-Latin American relations.
