Summary:
"After the fall of Rome, as civilizations collapsed and libraries burned, ancient knowledge was somehow preserved to fuel the revival of the Renaissance. This thrilling
history
debut tracks three classical books as they were passed hand to hand through seven cities during a preilous thousand-year journey toward survival."--Back cover.
