500 _a'Despite widespread interest in Damascus due to the Syrian Civil War, little has been written about the city in English. First Published in 2004, Burns' Damascus: A history remains the only English language volume to offer a comprehensive overview of the archaeology, architecture and history of one of the oldest cities on Earth. Therefore the second edition of this work is to be warmly welcomed for the addition of a new chapter bringing the reader up to date with the current situation and offering us a timely reminder of the effects of the war on this exceptional and fascinating city.'
