A book that treads your way into the world. ​

60 stories about the Czech traveller's heart.

Sixty stories about people who, in the last two centuries, helped to open a window to the world for our nation despite all the adversity, indifference and misunderstanding of the times. In the book, the reader can find an answer to the basic question that people locked in a country without the possibility to travel freely, or wander the world without the necessary finances, had to answer. Where did their determination come from, what motivated them and why did their desire for the wide world overcome all obstacles? The book Forgotten Journeys is about the courage not to give up and tread the path, no matter how difficult it is.

The expanded and updated edition is published with a foreword by Miloslav Stingl and includes unique period photographs, accompanying materials and illustrations.

Thirty new and thirty original stories of mostly unknown people who did extraordinary, often world-unique feats, only to be forgotten.
