Do they still exist? If not, where were they? What happened to them?This book goes in search of the truth about these and many other amazing places. Stuart Laycock and Chris West unearth stories of many kinds. Some take you to long-disappeared empires; others throw light on todays most pressing conflicts. You are invited to enjoy them all, in a collection of historical narratives as broad and enticing as an old stamp album that youve just discovered in the attic.
