The Phonetic Values Of The Cuneiform Characters, By George Smith. History Of Assurbanipal, Translated From The Cuneiform Inscriptions, By George Smith: Compte-rendu Critique

Jules Oppert, George Smith

Imprimerie nationale, 1872

George recently retired after eleven years in the chemical industry and thirty years in local government. Born in Hartlepool, County Durham, both his father and grandfather were railwaymen and he fell in love with railways and in particular steam locomotives at the very time when main line steam was on the way out. Being simultaneously long- and short-sighted, he was somewhat surprised to be turned down by British Railways when he applied to become an engine driver. Since the railways didn't want him, he decided to write about them instead and has written extensively for railway magazines over the last decade. His first book, Wylam: 200 Years of Railway History, was published in 2012. For the last two years he has been completing a post-graduate 'Certificate in Railway Studies' run jointly by the National Rail Museum and the University of York. He is married with three grown-up children.
