LOST JOURNAL OF INDIANA JONES

BOOK REVIEW  |  I've always been into Indiana Jones... the movies actually lead me to take a string of archeology classes in college and eventually influenced how I chose my major.

I can't tell if that's cool or just sad.

So when I saw a (fake?) leather-bound book at Borders entitled The Lost Journal of Indiana Jones, I bought it without even looking at the price tag.

It's definitely a fun book for fans of the movies... but you have to really know the details of the Indiana Jones storyline to appreciate the "Lost Journal," which is supposedly the lifelong journal of Indiana Jones that fell into Soviet hands at some point and is now annotated with KGB notes. It includes maps, sketches, newspaper clippings, photos, and some comments that give an interesting and amusing insight into some of the characters.

Fans of the series should give this one a try!
