Synopsis:

When history collapses, reason retreats and legends grow. The Age of Miracles is a collection of essays exploring the ways in which history has become entangled in myth. The long fall of Rome: Tales of cities of cannibals, satyrs and centaurs, saints and miracleworkers, all waiting just outside of sight. The rediscovery of Atlantis: How a Greek myth became a New Age touchstone. The birth of alternative facts: How to survive in a world of “fake news”. Personal, heartfelt, vibrant and sometimes trenchant, these essays illuminate a world where facts and truth often disagree.

About the Author: Howard David Ingham holds an MPhil in Latin Literature from Swansea University. He has worked as a writer and editor since 2002.
