520			_aDrawing from in-depth interviews and unpublished notes, Michael Livingston tells the story of who Robert Jordan was, how he worked, and why he holds such an important place in modern literature. Livingston also reveals new, previously unpublished material such as a Wheel of Time map incorporating Jordan's own requested changes. And readers can enjoy an alternate, unused scene from an early draft of The eye of the world. The book includes a guide to the 'real world' within The Wheel of Time series. Fascinating source material includes King Arthur, Merlin, Alexander the Great, the Apollo space program, Napoleon's greatest victory -- and so much more
