"Alexandria: The Quest for the Lost City" by Dr. Edmund Richardson is an enthralling historical narrative that unravels the extraordinary story of the city of Alexandria Beneath the Mountains. For centuries, this city served as a meeting point of East and West, but it eventually disappeared from historical records. However, in 1833, it was rediscovered in Afghanistan by a most unlikely individual: Charles Masson.
Charles Masson, originally an ordinary working-class boy from London, embarked on a remarkable journey that transformed him into a deserter, pilgrim, doctor, archaeologist, and highly respected scholar. Along his journey, he would have tea with kings, travel alongside holy men, adopt various disguises, and witness sights previously unseen by Westerners.
This meticulously researched book takes readers on a wild journey through nineteenth-century India and Afghanistan. It explores a world of espionage, dreamers, ne'er-do-wells, opportunists, and both personal and military violence. It also reveals the boundless hope that existed on the edge of empire, amid deserts and mountains.
"Alexandria" is a story of obsession passed down through the centuries, offering an immersive and captivating look at a historical mystery and the incredible individuals who sought to uncover its secrets.
