Clayton, Peter & Martin Price (Eds.). The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. London & New York (1988). 8vo, paperback 1989, illustrated card covers; 178 pages, illustrations throughout. Select bibliography for each chapter. Covers show slight wear. Very Good.


A note from BCD: Anything written by Martin Price is worth its weight in gold, even if it is an article not widely known, written for a ‘popular’ book. Here, his fascinating description of “The Statue of Zeus at Olympia” steals the show although articles such as “The Temple of Artemis at Ephesos” and “The Pharos at Alexandria” also draw much information from ancient numismatics.
