Doumas, C., editor; W.W. Phelps, production editor.
Thera and the Aegean World: Papers and Proceedings of the Second International Congress, Santorini, Greece, August, 1978 (Two volumes).
Publisher: London: Thera and the Aegean World, 1978, 1980 respectively.
First Editions ISBN: 0950613339 Two volumes, beige cloth stamped in gilt. 822 and 427 pages respectively with two geologic maps of the island in an envelope at rear of volume II. A collection of major papers presented at an academic conference on the island of Santorini (Thera in the Bronze Age). The volcanic explosion of the island and the following tidal waves all but destroyed the Minoan civilization. The articles cover geology and vulcanism as well as art and archaeology. A beautifully produced set. The books are clean and unworn but volume II has a previous owner stamp on the front endpaper, on the map envelope, and, very lightly, on the maps in the margin. The jackets are both bright and crisp, but both have light edge wear and some wrinkling at the head of spine. The jacket of volume I has a tiny area of delamination at the top rear panel, and that of volume II has a one inch tear to the top front panel.
