The rise and fall of Babylon

Anton Gill charts the history of Babylon, home of the Hanging Gardens and a wonder of the ancient world in itself. He chronicles the city's rise under Hammurabi, its fortunes in the centuries that followed, its golden age under a dynasty of Chaldean kings, and the life of its last great king, Nebuchadnezzar II.
