Grey wraps with color illustration and white lettering; 124 pp.; richly illustrated. "'Edge of Empires: Pagans, Jews, and Christians at Roman Dura-Europos' examines the ancient city of Dura-Europos, which stood at the intersection of the Hellenistic, Persian, and Roman worlds for some five centuries. With this exhibition, the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World brings to New York - among the most diverse of modern cities - compelling evidence that the ancient world, too, comprised multiple communities interacting and defining themselves in a rich and tolerant urban environment." -- Acknowledgments.
