Armorial bookplates of Matthew White Ridley and John Brinton to pastedowns. xxxi, 399, [1]; xii, 495pp. London, John Murray, A nice copy of Layard's account of his excavations at Nimrod and Nineveh. Layered arrived in Northern Iraq in 1845 and stayed in Mosul till 1847, taking multiple excursions to the sites of the ancient Assyrian cities. His efforts lead to the rediscovery of several important examples of Assyrian sculpture, including the now well-known palace reliefs. Upon returning to England he first published the present account in 1849, blending archaeological reportage, historical sketches and travel writing (including a fascinating visit to the Yezidi community at Lalish). The effusive public reaction helped kickstart the Assyromania that gripped certain artistic and archeological circles for the following decades.

Fifth edition, published a year after the first, of this important narrative of archaeological digs at Nimrud and Kouyunjik. This copy is bound with a two-page autograph letter signed (dated 1883), from Layard to an unknown recipient, mentioning a matter concerning Lord John Russell, 1st Earl Russell (1792-1878), who, like Layard, was a member of the Athenaeum Club. Layard (18171894) turned his back on steady employ in his uncle's solicitor's office and set off overland to join another uncle in Ceylon. Side-tracked by adventure he set aside his original itinerary, learned Persian and Arabic, and lived for some time in the Bakhtiari mountains. Whilst returning to Baghdad via Mosul he became convinced that he had discovered the location of Nineveh, persuading Sir Stafford Canning to support his excavations at Nimrud. After his return to England, and the publication of this work, he realized that Kouyunjik was in fact the correct location of Nineveh. In April 1849, Layard was appointed attaché at Constantinople, and he conducted major excavations at Kouyunjik later that year. This led to his second book, Nineveh and Babylon (1853), which yielded "further important trophies and discoveries, including the cuneiform library of Sennacherib's grandson Ashurbanipal, on which most modern knowledge of Assyrian culture is founded" (ODNB). Atabey 685, and Blackmer 968 for the first edition. Two volumes, octavo (210 x 135 mm). Near-contemporary red half morocco, pebble-grain orange boards, raised bands, compartments decorated in gilt, gilt lettered direct, marbled edges and endpapers. With tinted lithographic frontispiece in each volume, and 20 engraved plates (one double folding, one double-page), 5 folding maps and plans, numerous illustrations in the text. Ink stamp of one "T.W.", on recto of front free endpaper in each volume. Slightly rubbed, minor repairs to joints and corners, vol. II also with repaired tear to cloth of front cover, text block in vol. II cracked between title and frontispiece, map facing p. 332 in vol. I supplied, occasional foxing or offsetting from plates. A very good copy.

Hardcover. Zustand: g. Second edition. Octavo. XXX, [2], 399, [1], XII, 491, [1]pp. Original 3/4 calf over marbled paper covered boards with gold lettering and tooling on spines. Engraved frontispiece. When first published in 1849, "Nineveh and Its Remains" became the earliest and one of the most successful archaeological best-sellers. This work is an account of Layard's expedition to Mosul on the eastern bank of the Tigris River, where he found Nineveh. He also uncovered the palace of Sennacherib and many extraordinary artworks. Perhaps most important, however, was his discovery of large numbers of cuneiform tablets from the state archives, from which much about Assyrian and Babylonian culture and history was eventually learned. He also made soundings at Ashur, Babylon, Nippur, and other sites in Babylonia and Assyria. This 2-volume set is complete and extensively illustrated throughout with 3 folding plans, a large folding map and numerous in-text and full-page woodcuts. Moderate shelf-wear and sporadic rubbing along edges of bindings. Previous owner's ex-libris on inside of each front cover (John Fenwick of Newcastle upon Tyne, Attorney at Law). Previous owner's name on upper margin of each title page (Lucy Angus Emerson) and dated 1865. Bindings in overall good, interior in good+ to very good condition.

Layard's first publication on his first expedition into the archaeological sites near modern-day Mosul, Iraq. He excavated the mound at Nimrud, believing to have found the ancient city of Nineveh (he would discover that this was actually at Kuyunjik after the publication of his book). Regardless, "[Layard had] uncovered three palaces, most importantly that of Ashurnasirpal II, and many notable objects including the Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser III and several pairs of human-headed winged lions and bulls . in the last few weeks of this [excavation] Layard began [a dig] at Kuyunjik, nearer Mosul, and quickly discovered the largest Assyrian palace, that of Sennacherib . For his work near Mosul Layard earned the medal of the Royal Geographical Society" (Oxford DNB "Layard, Sir Austen Henry"). Layard's expedition occurred before Schliemann began his work in Turkey and Greece. An important volume chronicling early archaeology, at a time when the profession was just beginning to establish its standard practices and ways of documenting ancient culture. A Very Good book with some wear to the extremities and minor foxing scattered throughout.
