Sixteenth-century Frenchman Michel Nostradamus has been fascinating people for almost 500 years. Some of his predictions are literal descriptions of events and give specific or near-specific names, while others give geographic locations, astrological configurations and sometimes even actual dates. The book is beautifully illustrated throughout using both contemporary and modern pictures, and reviews predictions which deal with past occurrences, as well as those predicting events yet to come. A commentary for each entry will show modern readers just how accurate he was and how he actually foresaw our world today.
