The Atlas of True Names reveals the etymological roots, or original meanings, of the familiar terms on today`s map of Europe. For instance, where you would normally expect to see London indicated, the ‘ Atlas’ gives you ” Hillfort. The ` True Names` of 1500 cities, countries, rivers, oceans & mountain ranges are displayed on this fascinating map, which

Includes:: a comprehensive index of derivations. Etymology is the study of the origin & history of words. For the first time, the Atlas of True Names uses etymology to give us an unusual insight into familiar geographical names
- with intriguing results...... Many geographical names are clearly rooted in Man’s observation of his natural environment; the physical location of a settlement: “ At the Foot of the Mountain”
- Piedmont, the character of an important water course: “ The Gentle One”
- The Seine or even just the local vegetation: “ Under the Oaks”
- Potsdam. Unsurprisingly, countries & landscapes often derive their names from the characteristics of the people who lived there: “ Great Land of the Tattooed”
- Great Britain, whilst local mythology & regional rulers also frequently leave their legacy: “ Isle of the Monster’s Eye”
- Peleponnese or “ Illustrious Emperor”
- Zaragoza. The Atlas of True Names restores an element of enchantment to the world we all think we know so well. It takes the reader on a journey into the unknown
- a unique exploration of uncharted territory in that familiar place we all know as ‘home’. Take a look at the world through fresh eyes!

Dirk Leyman became interested at a very young age in these peculiar accordion postcard albums, which every self-respecting tourist & souvenir hunter used to take home from their holiday. Dirk started to systematically collect them as time went by. The snapshots, which are folded in zig-zag fashion, are like relics of a long-gone era. Some are veritable typographical & photographic gems. Others are borderline kitsch, with their heavy-handed use of colour. Europe Express spans the decades between the two World Wars to the early Eighties, with photos of San Marco in Venice & the elegant Grand Hotels & the utopian, upstanding world of the former Soviet Union. ...
