Early Adventures in Persia, Susiana, and Babylonia: Volume 1

In volume 1 of 2 of Early Adventures in Persia, Susiana, and Babylonia , we find Sir Austen Henry Layard (1817-1894) providing thrilling accounts of his travels through Asia Minor to Syria and Palestine, Baghdad, India, and onward. During these explorations, Layard describes how this "led to the discovery of the Assyrian remains with which my name has been associated." These include relics that now reside in the British Museum, such as cuneiform tablets and bronze and ivory pieces.
