About the Author
What History Forgot was written in 2016, when Atharva Inamdar was 19 and developing what would become The Vomit Method — marathon writing sessions of 20 hours a day, 15 days straight, to finish a book. The history & civilization work from this period reflects a writer pushing hard to find his voice. With 40 history titles, this genre reflects a genuine interest in how the past shapes the present — a theme that runs through much of the broader catalog.
