Although his manuscript was not complete at the time of his death, all that he had written down is here. After introductory testimonia and identification, Peirene is described in its numerous periods (several Greek, seven Roman, Byzantine, and Modern) with a special section on Supply Tunnels and an analysis of paintings by Prentice Duell who did the watercolors from which the color plates were made. The whole sanctuary connected with the Sacred Spring is treated topographically, each part (roadway, temple, triglyph friezes, reservoir, fountain house, bases, terraces) described and then the three main periods outlined. For Glauke, George Elderkin's study of 1910 is reprinted with only partial revision by Bert Hill."--Publisher's website ER -
