Four Lost Cities: A Secret History of the Urban Age

Wrote a review for

Well written, not loaded with technical jargon, so informative for a layperson. A nice mix of the sciences involved plus the author's own experiences in researching and visiting the sites.

It cover 4 "cities"; I was aware of 3 of them and the last is one (east of St. Louis, Missouri, US) I've actually visited. Because the part of Cahokia I visited, is not very restored, it's hard to imagine the city described in the book.
