First Steps in Assyrian

Abstract

THE appearance of Mr. King's volume, with its modestly worded title, is opportune, and we think it likely that it will be welcomed by every student of the literatures of the East. The author's avowed object is to help the student of the cuneiform inscriptions who has, as yet, made but little progress in his difficult work, but there is little doubt that Mr. King's stout volume will be of considerable use to others besides him.

First Steps in Assyrian.

By L. W. King. Pp. cxxxix + 399. 8vo. (London: Kegan Paul and Co, Ltd., 1898.)
