World Book Day: Read The Lost Chalice


Today, March 4, 2010, is World Book Day. So what would I recommend to readers of LM on the theme of this blog?

I have to recommend Vernon Silver's The Lost Chalice: The Epic Hunt for a Priceless Masterpiece (William Morrow, 2009) [see my earlier comments]. Silver has a fluent style and with a pace more familiar from the crime genre.

If you are in any doubts about the impact of looting on the archaeological heritage of Italy then you need to read this.
