The Parthenon Marbles


An exceptional book by the renowned author and journalist Christopher Hitchens that deals with the issue surrounding the “Elgin Marbles”. He was the first person to state that the sculptures should not be associated with the name of the infamous Lord Elgin but should be called by their proper title which is the Parthenon Marbles. The first edition of the book was in 1987.
