7. Michael Wood's In Search of the Trojan War

I watch the series regularly and have the book close to hand. I keep up with current archeology from there, including evidence that now shows a battle was fought there, and that the damage Schliemann did while working there covered much of the early site that would have proved his theory about this being the site of the Trojan War.

Concentrate on getting to Phoenix for now, I know that would make you happy!
