Museum of antiquity; a description of ancient life: the employments, amusements, customs and habits, the cities, places, monuments and tombs, the literature and fine arts of 3,000 years ago
A popular one-volume survey of ancient life by L. W. Yaggy and Thomas L. Haines, published for American subscription readers in Des Moines in 1887. Wood engravings mix ruined temples and tombs in landscape, crowded figure scenes of feasts and battles, and small artifact studies, framed by symmetrical foliate headpieces and tailpieces with inset cartouches of Egyptian masks and figures.
