First published in the 1750s, The Ruins of Palmyra and The Ruins of Baalbek are a remarkable record of an expedition to the Levant by three antiquarians - Robert Wood, John Bouverie and James Dawkins - along with a draftsman, Giovanni Battista Borra. With over 100 engravings of the classical architecture of the two ancient cities of Palmyra and Baalbek, the volumes represent the earliest-known examples of monographs on archaeological sites. They were unique in providing systematic discussion of the sites' physical and human geography alongside two kinds of pictorial evidence: views of the ancient sites in their then-present state and detailed plans, with measurements, of architectural features. This new approach was immediately copied by antiquarians in the later 18th century and also had great influence upon Neoclassical architecture in Britain, Europe and North America. This new edition features reproductions of all the engravings from the original publications and includes a new introduction by noted scholar, Benjamin Anderson (Cornell University, USA).

Excerpt from History of Baalbek In my previous editions of the history of Baal bek, I had drawn my facts from the best authorities then known, but the new light thrown on the subject by the German Mission shows, that, on some points, my information was inexact. Profiting by the discoveries of the German Mission and by those I have made myself, Ihave been able to make many corrections 111 the present work. In the former edition of my book, I inserted two plans, one representing the original state of the temple, one showing their present con dition. These plans were the most exact to be obtained at that time; the German Mission have provided us with more precise ones. Thanks to them, I have been able to give, in this edition, the plans of the temples, before they were touched by either the Byzantines or the Arabs, thus giving a good idea of the grandeur of Roman Architecture at its apogee. I have also added a plan, showing the present ruined state of the temples. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The fame of the ruins at Baalbek in Lebanon once drew many tourists. The Romans eventually built magnificent temples over a massive multi-level platform considered to be one of the only prediluvial sites that survived the flood. Here we find the amazing 1000-plus ton stones as part of the original temple platform. The largest cranes in the world would have difficulty lifting, let alone moving, these massive limestone blocks. These stones and other parts of this important site are described in this handy reference guide.
