Drawing on her deep expertise as an archaeologist, Haynes presents the ruined cities, rock-cut tombs, and sacred sites of southwestern Turkey with both scholarly precision and vivid, evocative prose. The narrative uncovers the fascinating interplay between legend and history, tracing the mythological resonances of a land once home to the fire-breathing Chimaera and the heroes of antiquity.
