What a great book. The pictures are beautiful, the text clear and precise, and it leaves you wanting to investigate more into the writing of the ancients in their own time. It was informative and a fun read all at the same time. A glorious book filled with great examples of ancient writings, grafiti, political statements, state documents and touching epitaphs to the dead. A delight.
