Book Description

May 1 2008
Get up close and personal with movie legend Indiana Jones, the world's favourite whip-wielding archaeologist! Join Harrison Ford as rogue Indiana Jones on a death defying adventure in this guide to all four of his swashbuckling movies. Get under the cover and meet the man under the fedora; explore his journey from childhood to adulthood and come face-to-face with his family, friends and deadly foes. Take an in-depth look at all Indy's movies: from "The Temple of Doom" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" to "The Last Crusade" and the much anticipated fourth film 'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull". Go on your own intrepid adventure: from the Shakara Stones to the Arc of the Covenant, and explore favourite locations and ancient ruins with the pull out maps. Then read extracts from Indiana's private journal. Mind-blowing pictures and behind-the-scenes shots will make you feel like you're there. It's a thrill a minute, larger-than-life journey into Indiana's world!

4.0 out of 5 stars Must for the Indy-phile May 23 2008
By E. T. Dexter - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
If you're familiar with any DK books, you know what you're in for here: amazing photographs and plenty of information covering Indy's adventures.

In addition to the films, the book also touches on Indy's adventures in comics, video games and the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles TV show. My only 'complaint' with the book is that the most recent film is not covered in as much detail as the originals.

Otherwise, if you're bothering to read reviews for this book, you should plan on getting it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Indy lovers! Jun 10 2008
By K from PA - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I bought the guide as a gift for my nephew and his father, both HUGE Indy fans, and they love it! It is very comprehensive, especially the Indy time- line, which incorporates all Indy lore, even the Young Indy TV series. Neither my nephew nor my brother can put the book down.

4.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Companion Piece to the Indy Universe... Nov 18 2008
By F. Nava - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I think that this is a great addition to any Indiana Jones catalogue. It is a companion book to all of the movies, tv episodes, books, games, etc. from the Indy universe.

The only complaint I have is that this book does not show the same attention and detail to the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This book was actually released BEFORE the film came out (I got it right when it first went on sale), and it seems like the lack of info on the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was due to either makers not wanting to release too much before the movie actually opened, or the lack of info on the film at the time. Even though characters of the new film are given book time, the actual plot to the movie is missing, leaving the Crystal Skull section a little empty when compared to the rest of the book. That is the only reason why this book was knocked from a solid 5 stars to 4.

But don't let that distract you. There is a WEALTH of information and photos that will satisfy any fan, casual or fanatic. With a subject as great as the Indiana Jones universe (or Star Wars universe for that matter), we are lucky to even have these new films to both reminisce or pass on to OUR kids...
