From Nineveh to New York The Strange Story of the Assyrian Reliefs in the Metropolitan Museum and the Hidden Masterpiece at Canford School

"I haven't read a more thrilling book in years about archeology and the history of taste than John Malcolm Russell's story of the peregrinations of the spectacular Assyrian reliefs and colossi now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Or one more beautifully organized, scrupulously researched and laden with vivid human characterizations and penetrating observations about the fashions and foibles surrounding artistic styles."Russell, John M. is the author of 'From Nineveh to New York The Strange Story of the Assyrian Reliefs in the Metropolitan Museum and the Hidden Masterpiece at Canford School' with ISBN 9780300064599 and ISBN 0300064594.
