Pickup an old stamp album and flick through it. You’ll find a
host of exotic and unfamiliar names: Cyrenaica, Fernando Poo,
Fiume, North Ingria, Obock, Stellaland, Tuva, – distant lands,
vanished territories, lost countries. Do they still exist? If not,
where were they? What happened to them? From My Old Stamp Album
goes in search of the truth about these and many other amazing
places. Stuart Laycock and Chris West unearth stories of many
kinds. Some take you to long-disappeared empires; others throw
light on the modern era’s most pressing wars. You are invited to
enjoy them all, in a collection of historical narratives as broad
and enticing as that old stamp album that you’ve just discovered
in the attic.
