Large format 64 page book for young adults. Profusely illustrated, many illustrations occupy a whole page. A number of chapters covering the founding of the city, the construction of the library, famous persons associated with the library, and its eventual destruction. The discussion of the contributions of Archimedes is not really mathematically sound. I had not heard previously of Hierophilus the reputed vivisector, since my interest is mostly in math and engineering. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the illustrations: the Greek soldier confiscating books for the library looked oddly Roman. (

As Alexander lay sleeping one night, the Greek poet Homer appeared in his dreams and recited a verse:
Now, there is an island in the much-dashing sea,
In front of Egypt; Pharos is what men call it.
