Archeo-Spies (eBook, ePUB)

The men who divided their lives between exploration and intelligence, in search of the secret power of history

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The purpose of this book is to recount the adventurous lives of a number of scholars associated with archaeology and the history of espionage, as well as the ancient and modern techniques used to exploit the past as a kind of 'secret weapon'.
From 'Lawrence of Arabia' to John Pendlebury, from Percy Harrison Fawcett to Richard Meinertzhagen and many others, the activities of these agents have been so important in the 'great game' - as the writer Rudiah Kipling defined intelligence - that in some cases they have changed or at least significantly influenced the political order of the world, with repercussions that are still felt today.
There is a secret power in the past that is capable of transforming it into a dangerous reservoir from which to draw pretexts for new battles, in the name of spirits that continue to fan the fires of discord and hatred.
