THE KING'S SHADOW: Obsession, Betrayal, and the Deadly Quest for the Lost City of Alexandria
Beneath the plains of Afghanistan lie the remains of a fabulous city. Founded by Alexander the Great, Alexandria Beneath the Mountains was a meeting point of East and West. Then it vanished. In 1833, it was discovered by the unlikeliest person imaginable--Charles Masson, spy, archaeologist, deserter, and the greatest of 19th century travelers. 16 pages of photos.
