For Sale: What Are The Seven Wonders Of The World? and 100 Other Great Cultural Lists - Fully Explicated by Peter D'epiro and Mary Desmond Pinkowish, published by Anchor Books, a division of Random House, Inc., 1998. They list the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, The Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) at Giza, The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, The Statue of Zeus at Olympia, The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, The Colossus of Rhodes and The Pharos (Lighthouse) of Alexandria. It is a compendium of 101 culturally significant lists from history, science, literature and religion, each accompanied by a brief essay providing historical and cultural context. This is a previously owned book in barely acceptable condition, the cover is coming loose at the spine, the first 98 pages have separated from the book cover but attached to each other, there is a hand drawn picture and writing on the title page, note in margin on pages 155 and 245, and underlining on pages 156, 388, 389, and 391. I have hundreds of books that have been handed down through generations, plus more recent books. Some are in great condition, some showing much use and some damage. A lot of the books came from homes, bay houses, or beach houses along the Gulf Coast, back before air conditioning, where there is high humidity and severe weather at times. Especially some of the older books from the early 1900's. We were taught that books are very valuable and should never be destroyed as long as they are still readable.
