So I checked Google Maps and there's a John Snow pub on Broadwick Street in Soho named after one of the guys who traced the 1854 Cholera epidemic.

This is my History Book Group's pic for Jan. Alexander von Humboldt is currently wandering around Europe with all his equipment looking for an expedition to go on but the stupid Napoleonic Wars keep getting in the way.

Life Along the Silk Road | Susan Whitfield

Great approach to history of the Silk Road for a non-academic. It's organized around veniets about different individuals who traveled the various routes between Europe, the Middle East, and Asia in the Middle Ages. The stories draw on a wide variety of sources including art works.
