Lost to Time

A$13 · Offered by Harry Hartog Rare Books

In this fascinating collection of historical vignettes, Martin Sandler restores to memory forgotten, yet important, events, people, and developments that have been lost to time. Ranging from an eighth-century black slave to the worst peacetime maritime disaster ever, these tales are far from trivia; they illuminate little-known achievements, ingenuity, heroics, blunders, and tragedies that changed the course of history and still resonate today.
