Story
The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Story
The Roman Republic is one of the most breathtaking civilizations in world history. Between roughly 500 BCE to the turn of the millennium, a modest city-state developed an innovative system of government and expanded into far-flung territories across Europe, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. This powerful civilization inspired America's founding fathers, gifted us a blueprint for amazing engineering innovations, left a vital trove of myths, and has inspired the human imagination for 2,000 years.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Wonderful book filled with rich history!
I truly enjoyed this book and learned so much about the history of theater in London, which I knew nothing about. It's written in a way that pulls you in and captures your attention. It's amazing how theater took hold of this area and turned it into what it is today. A great read or listen whether you're into theater or not. It's full of rich history and connects the dots. Pick up a copy!

Great History of London's Theater Scene
This is such an interesting book on the history of theater in London. As an American, I am very familiar with our own arts scene. And it dawned on me that the entire world culture has its base in the fine arts, not just my own little berg. This book reminded me of how important the arts are to all cultures. It is a wonderful book to listen to at any time.

Fascinating history and context for the West End
I'm not a theater buff, but I really enjoyed learning about the fascinating history behind the development and evolution of performance arts in London, with so much more context around the rise and fall of empires, how the reigns of various monarchs impact the culture and people's lives, etc. When I traveled to London many years ago, I didn't have any of this context during my 1-week stay and still enjoyed walking around and explored the area that's known as the West End. I can't wait to go back and visit the same places now that I have so much more appreciation for the history and culture that contributed to the modern-day scenes in London.
Highly recommend this title for anyone interested in visiting London or learning about its history and culture, especially with an interest in performance arts.
