63000X2 First Edition. Harper & Row, New York: 1969. 543 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. Was Richard II the hysteric that Shakespeare and tradition say he was? Was Stonehedge built for worship and sacrifice, or as an astronomical computer? Were Homer's descriptions of the seas and landfalls of Ulysses' journey wholly fanciful?

Writers like Jacques Barzun, Richard D. Altick, Robin G. Collingwood, Allan Nevins, Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., Erik Erikson, C. Vann Woodward and David Donald, among others are included. $15.75USD
