Book: Ten Discoveries That Rewrote History

Author: Patrick Hunt

Have you ever wondered about the true story behind the most fascinating findings in the history of civilization? This very short book outlines a fabulous account of each one of ten that you’ll find spellbinding. The Rosetta Stone, King Tut’s Tomb and The Dead Sea Scrolls are but three that I found thriling. But my favorite was the account of finding Nineveh’s Assyrian Library. What a breakthrough!
