I like to visit places with a history, and when i did, i would always wonder how it was in different periods in history. Sometimes, this desire would be satiated if there was movie or a documentary about the place. In general, reading about the place did not really take me back in time. However, reading " When Places come Alive", i have to say the Author managed to take me back in time. I am not sure, if it was the simple narrative or the characterisation, but stories in the book made a profound impact. I sincerely wish she writes more of this and brings to life all the places she has visited. A true treat to read and experience, especially in paperback!!!
