Description
A biography of Leonard Wooley who was one of the principal figures in archaeology in the first half of the 20th century. His private life showed lapses of judgement in stark contrast with his meticulous professional standards. H.V.F. Winstone traces the conflicting strands in a sympathetic portrait of this deeply enigmatic figure. The author's earlier books include "Uncovering the Ancient World", "The Illicit Adventure", "Gertrude Bell", and "Captain Shakespear".
