Finding the Walls of Troy: Frank Calvert and Heinrich Schliemann at Hisarlik Paperback - 1999 - 1st Edition
by Susan Heuck Allen
The discovery of the ancient city of Troy has long been attributed to the relentlessly self-promoting archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann. Now, Susan Heuck Allen sets the record straight and gives a good portion of the credit to Frank Calvert, the first archaeologist to test the hypothesis that Hisarlik in Asia Minor was the Troy of Homer's "Iliad". 55 illustrations. 4 maps.
From the rear cover
"Allen sets into print the story of Frank Calvert, the man really responsible for the discovery of Hisarlik and its identification with ancient Troy. . . . This book presents both new and little-known material and is fascinating in its treatment of Calvert and Schliemann."--Eric Cline, Xavier University
"In an informative and carefully documented study, Allen has restored an unjustly neglected pioneer of field archaeology to his rightful place in the discipline. She has also cast much revealing light on the most famous and controversial of modern archaeologists, Heinrich Schliemann."--William M. Calder, University of Illinois, Urbana
