Norman, Ok: University of Oklahoma Press, 2001. 1st Edition, 1st Printing . Hardcover. New/New. BRAND NEW BOOK, NEVER USED. Book was taken out of original shrinkwrap and an archival quality Brodart cover was installed by this bookseller. This author's book is a major new look at the mystery of how the pyramids were built, and it is perhaps the most well-argued and convincing approach yet to the problem. Volume itself has a two tone cloth cover that is blue and brown with gold lettering on the spine. 352 pages. Clean, fresh, tight and bright. A very nice copy.
