I discovered an 18 year old secret! There was a 2nd edition of the tagged book published in 2001. I had replaced my copies of the original 1995 edition a few times and had never come across this edition online or in bookstores. I found it while looking for the book in another language! 🙄 So of course I had to get it! 🙃🙂
My Facebook memories gave me this picture this morning, from 4 years ago. It‘s a different (much smaller) apartment (movin‘ on up!) & clearly pre-iPhone judging from the quality of the pic.
My husband‘s not a big reader so I try to catalog & savor the instances when he indulges. I think he was reading Graham Hancock‘s “Fingerprints of the Gods” here (which is a MASSIVE book; go hard or go home)! Plus... how cute is Moxie? 😉

What an idea!
1. Samuel Clemens (he was buddies with Tesla)
2. Kircher (Jesuit, considered the last man to know everything)
3. George Orwell (what would he think of us?)
4. Dejan Arnautovic (my favorite Chef and best friend)
5. Herodotus (from the horse's mouth, his sources)
6. Colin Wilson (well researched author)
7. Graham Hancock (can I help you research)
8. Christopher Knight or Robert Lomas ( can I have access to your sources)

A very interesting read, every time I read it. Instead of focusing on one small group of history and mankind Hancock takes a step back and looks at the big picture that is us. All of us!
Next up on audio ... another pick from the BOGO sale Audible had recently. This is another one that is right up my alley!! Looking forward to starting this!
I felt myself confronted by the dizzying possibility that an entire episode in the story of mankind might have been forgotten. It seemed to me..that our species could have been afflicted with some terrible amnesia and that the dark period so blithely and dismissively referred to as prehistory'might turn out to conceal unimagined truths about our own past. What is prehistory, after all, if not a time forgotten--a time for which we have no records?
Fantastic read that will make you question everything you've ever been taught in school about ancient history! For someone who isn't big on historical nonfiction, I couldn't put it down!
