Written in French. The spine is a golden 3 toned leather with gold and black inlay--gorgeous. The rest of the book is hardback with a swirly grown, gold, pink and green pattern. It is in very good condition.

WOW!,
This review is from: Salammbo (Hardcover)
This is a remarkable story. Simply put, it tells the seige of Carthage by an army of mercenarys upset about not receiving their pay. But, it is much more than that. For those who are interested in ancient history, this should be read. You get a feeling for the time and the thinking. Although this story is fiction, it seems real. After reading it, I still find myself thinking about it on occasion. I suppose you could call it haunting. It is well worth reading to immerse yourself in the ancient world as well as for the story itself.
For those interested in learning more about the Phoenicians and Carthage and its destruction, "The Phoenicians" written by Gerbard Herm is an excellent book that gives a very good overview of the entire history of the Phoenican civilization and its impact on the world.
