In far Cambodia, where the Khmer kings built their mighty temples and vanished from the earth with their millions of subjects hundreds of years ago, leaving no trace upon the written pages of history, are secrets yet undivulged to man, jungles that even natives never enter. Into such went Gordon King. What he found there you will find in the pages of this book: stupendous temples guarded by priests of the great god Siva, the Destroyer; kings and dancing girls and warriors in brass; tigers and elephants; enemies, friends, andÑthe Jungle Girl. He found hunger and thirst and suffering and danger and sickness; he found adventure and, at last, a great love. But before that came he wandered almost naked in the savage jungle, taking his chances with other hunting beasts. In armor of brass he served as a warrior of the Leper King, fighting the KingÕs enemies from the howdah of a war elephant.
