Since his debut in 1981's Raiders of the Lost Ark, fans have followed the adventures of learned scholar and hunky professor Indiana Jones. He is the unlikely action-hero who undertakes perilous adventures involving snakes, rats, spiders, and villains, in order to stop powerful, mystical artifacts from falling into the wrong hands. With a fourth installment underway, fans can brush up on their Indy knowledge and relive the archeologist's best--and worst--moments.
Packed with a wealth of information from all four movies--about the characters, movie story lines, ancient ruins and artifacts, the history, and the mysticism - Indiana Jones: The Ultimate Guide provides fans with everything they need to know about the unconventional archeologist and his world.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Outstanding Companion Piece to the Indy Universe... Comment: 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. 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...
Customer Rating:      Summary: MAGNIFICA GUIA PARA EL HOMBRE DEL SOMBRERO Comment: Esta INDIANA JONES THE ULTIMATE GUIDE incorpora anemamente toda la informacion y anecdotas basicas sobre las aventuras de Indiana Jones dentro y fuera de las pantallas, incluyendo datos de su produccion y merchanding relacionada.Lo resaltable son los diagramas presentados, y las buenas fotos presentadas. Poca informacion sobre la ultima pelicula, y obvian las "sorpresas" del hijo perdido y el matrimonio, lo que daña en cierto modo lo completo de este libro. Bien que hayan incluido algunas aventuras de los comics y las novelas. Mal que hayan dejado dejado totalmente de lado al anciano tuerto Indiana que salÃa presentando algunos episodios de la serie de TV del Young Indiana Jones. A pesar de estos detales, vale la pena comprar este libro si eres fan de Indy, pues no creo que se encuentre uno mejor por ahora.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great for Indy lovers! Comment: 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.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Must for the Indy-phile Comment: 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!
Customer Rating:      Summary: A very interesting book... Comment: This book is full of interesting tidbits about everyone's favorite archaeologist. I highly recommend it to anyone who is an Indiana Jones fan!
