| Summary: | As a teenager my parents received through the Book-of-the-Month
Club a volume that could easily have led me to want to become an archaeologist if I had
not already made that decision. Gods, Graves. and Scholars by C. W. Cerarn (pseudonym of
German journalist Kurt W. Marek) had been first published in Germany in 1949 and
translated and published in the U.S. in 1951 (Ceram 1951). This book, still in print,
was one of the few written in the first half of the century to bring the history of
archaeology to a general audience. |
