	An able and skilful artist: The career of Paul Benfield of the English East India Company
		Friction with the less corruptible colonial governors appointed by Parliament in the 1780s ended Benfield’s Indian career; he returned to England and became a prominent “nabob”, a member of the class of nouveaux riches whose estates, political power, and respectability were bought with ill-gotten gains from the East.
		The bulk of the letters, however, are those written in London in the 1780s, when Benfield was at the peak of his career in India, and it is on these that I have concentrated.
		Benfield might manoeuvre, in the 1780s, to be appointed Governor of Madras—even hoping, perhaps, in the long run, to be appointed Governor-General of India—but already there was little chance that he would succeed.

	Al-Ahram Weekly \| Books Supplement (February 2002) \| Assyria and Indiana Jones
		The ancient kingdom of Assyria, located in what is now northern Iraq, is mentioned in both the Old Testament of the Bible and in Ancient Greek sources, yet until the middle of the 19th century European historians considered its existence to be mythical, or at least unproven.
		There is not even a map to show the extent of the Assyrian Empire, which at its height in the 7th Century BC took in territory as far afield as Egypt, and to show the location of sites discussed in the text.
		Yet, on closing the book, the reader will have learnt much not only about Assyria, but also about the conditions under which 19th-century archaeology was carried out and the assumptions that governed this then undeveloped discipline.

		When, in 55 BC, Julius Caesar's army bridged the Rhine in a fast-water canyon, marched across to beat up the German country-side for a few weeks of retribution, marched out and destroyed the bridge, it added more timeless awe to Roman feats of arms under the citizen-involved Republic.
