Book Description
Excerpt from Discoveries in the Ruins of Nineveh and Babylon: With Travels in Armenia, Kurdistan and the Desert, Being the Result of a Second Expedition Undertaken for the Trustees of the British Museum I am aware that several distinguished French scholars, amongst whom I may mention my friends, M. Botta and M. De Saulcy, have contributed to the successful decipher ing of the Assyrian inscriptions. Unfortunately I have been unable to consult the published results of their inves tigations. If, therefore, I should have overlooked in any instance their claims to prior discovery, I have to express my regret for an error arising from ignorance, and not from any unworthy national prejudice.

Book Description
Excerpt from Discoveries Among the Ruins of Nineveh and Babylon: With Travels in Armenia, Kurdistan, and the Desert; Being the Result of a Second Expedition Undertaken for the Trustees of the British Museum Since the publication of my first work on the discoveries at Nineveh much progress has been made in deciphering the cuneiform character, and the contents of many highly interesting and important inscriptions have been given to the public. For these additions to our knowledge we are mainly indebted to the sagacity and learning 'of two English scholars, Col. Rawlinson and the Rev. Dr. Hincks. In making use of the results of their researches, I have not ommitted to own the sources from which my informa tion has been derived. I trust, also, that I have in no instance availed myself of the labors of other writers, or of the help of friends, without due acknowledgments. I have endeavored to assign to every one his proper share in the discoveries recorded in these pages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
