CHADWICK, J., — The Decipherment of Linear B.

Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1958. 147p. Cloth wrps. Wrps little bit worn. Folding chart. 'In this attractive book Chadwick shows not only his scholarship and gift of clear exposition, but also a story-teller's flair for the dramatic moments of an exciting tale. His book is a pleasure to read; it is also, thanks to the Cambridge University Press, an ornament to the bookshelf, and even the elegant dus jacket, with notes and illustrations, was designed for a better fate than the waste-paper-basket.' (D.M. JONES in The Classical Review (New Series), 1959, p.225).
