About The Author
Colin Salter
Colin Salter is the author of nine books in Pavilion’s 100s series, each telling the history of the world as recorded by humankind’s use of words in books, speeches, letters and now diaries. His latest book The History Trees takes a different perspective on history, as seen through its silent witnesses – the trees which have lived through major human events. Colin also writes on science history, most recently in The Anatomists’ Library (Quarto), and on travel, notably in his trilogy of Remarkable Road Trips, Bicycle Rides and Treks (Pavilion). Colin has kept a diary since the age of sixteen.
