At the height of her career, Bell journeyed into the heart of the
Middle East retracing the steps of the ancient rulers who left
tangible markers of their presence in the form of castles, palaces,
mosques, tombs and temples. Among the many sites she visited were
Ephesus, Binbirkilise and Carchemish in modern-day Turkey as well
as Ukhaidir, Babylon and Najaf within the borders of modern Iraq.
Lisa Cooper here explores Bell's achievements, emphasizing the
tenacious, inquisitive side of her extraordinary personality, the
breadth of her knowledge and her overall contribution to the
archaeology of the Middle East. Featuring many of Bell's own
photographs, this is a unique portrait of a remarkable life.
