Frontispiece to both volumes James Hendrick of Font Grove, New Scotland.

Charles Thomas Newton was a British archaeologist. This work follows the greatest archaeological exploit of Newton's life. He discovered the remains of the mausoleum of Halicarnassus, which is one of the seven wonders of the world. He described the results of this in his 'History of Discoveries at Halicarnassus' as well as this work. In addition to Halicarnassus, this work depicts other important discoveries at Branchidae, excavations at Mitylene, Rhodes, Kaymnos and various sites on the coast of Asia Minor.
A very smart copy of this work.
