There is book by Cody Cassidy named "How to Survive History: How to Outrun a 
Tyrannosaurus, Escape Pompeii, Get Off the Titanic, and Survive the Rest of 
History's Deadliest 
Catastrophes".https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/668982/how-to-survive-history-by-cody-cassidy/Sometimes
 escaping disasters is not what we want though. The Pompeii disaster for 
instance conserved an ancient Roman city as it was 2000 years ago. And now we 
can even hope to read their ancient texts. Julian Schilliger, Youssef Nader and 
Luke Farritor have won the Vesuvius prize of $700,000 because they managed to 
read an badly charred scroll.https://scrollprize.org/grandprizeThey have used 
AI and machine learning to decipher the text of 2,000-year-old charred papyrus 
scripts. The deciphered scrolls contain musings on music, food and life's 
pleasures.https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-00346-8Will people in 2000 
years discover books from our time beneath the ruble, for instance Joyce Carol 
Oates or Craig Johnson, and desperately try to decipher them?-J.
