Petra

“… This book is the first to do full justice to Petra. It presents not only the story of the city and its peoples but also an exceptionally clear account of its monuments and scenic splendours, and the exciting discoveries made in recent archaeological excavations. With more than 200 magnificent photographs, drawings, maps an architectural reconstructions, it offers general readers and archaeologists alike an up-to-date and fascinating introduction to perhaps the most remarkable city of the ancient world.”
