false 429709 2 One of the real larger-than-life characters of the 19th century, Heinrich Schliemann made his fortune in the Russian indigo trade and the California gold rush. He achieved his fame by uncovering the cities Troy and Mycenae. And if it wasn't the Troy of the Trojan War or the Mycenae of Agamemnon, as Schliemann claimed, the value of his discovery, in terms of archeology and pure treasure, is still indisputable. Like <i>Schliemann of Troy</i> by David Traill, Caroline Moorehead uncovers Schliemann's arrogance and his propensity to exaggerate, if not lie outright. But she's not so focused on his faults that she's blind to his strengths. 418694 1996 Lost and Found: Heinrich Schliemann and the Gold That Got Away total:6|5:2|4:2|3:2| 6 24 10 1 4 0 false false Wed Mar 26 19:12:50 -0700 2008 Wed Sep 17 15:16:33 -0700 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Mon Sep 07 00:23:19 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 07 00:23:19 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Tue Aug 25 06:56:29 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 06:56:29 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jan 12 05:19:54 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 12 05:19:54 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jul 09 08:52:15 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 09 08:52:15 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Jul 01 13:47:37 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 01 14:40:37 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Tue Mar 25 21:24:13 -0700 2008 Tue Mar 25 21:24:13 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Nov 29 07:19:24 -0800 2007 Thu Nov 29 07:19:24 -0800 2007 4 0 false false Fri Aug 24 17:03:16 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 24 17:03:16 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2002 Thu Jun 28 19:36:08 -0700 2007 Sun Aug 12 19:39:25 -0700 2007
