- The book will go through each film scene by scene, jumping off to describe various aspects of them such as: Gigantic Rolling Boulders, Tanis, the Lost City of Ancient Egypt, Spanish Conquistadors, and the Cross of Coronado, Drinking Blood and Lawrence of Arabia and The Curse of King Tut.
As a team, Lois H. Gresh and Robert Weinberg have written numerous non-fiction books, including The Science of Superheroes, The Science of Supervillains, the The Science of James Bond and The Science of Stephen King. Weinberg is the two-time winner of the World Fantasy Award.
The ultimate Indiana Jones companion The true history, supernatural wonders, and mysteries of Indiana Jones Could you really use a bullwhip to swing across a chasm?

It tells you everything you've ever wanted to know about the history, culture, and science behind your favorite Indy scenes and settings.
