Heinrich Schliemann knew it was his destiny to find Troy, the city of Homer's Iliad, though most believed the place never existed. After combing the ancient text for clues, he began to dig, and what things he found! Here is the life story of a rich businessman with no archaeological training, who jumped to conclusions, lied about himself, carelessly destroyed the very artifacts he was trying to find, smuggled treasures out of other countries-and made amazing discoveries. Black-and-white art. Endnotes. Bibliography.
