"A gem of a book." -- The New Yorker "Fascinating. . . .If you're interested in the history of religion, or detective stories--because this is definitely one--check out The Ark Before Noah ." --NY1 "[E]ngaging and informative. . . . Finkel is an enthusiast and shows evident delight in bringing this find to the wider public." -- The Wall Street Journal "[T]he charged thrill of Finkel's chase permeates the book -- the pages don't just join dots, they supply new pieces for a beautiful, Bronze-Age jigsaw-puzzle. . . .

Thank God there are still men who can translate [these ancient] messages." -- The Times "A serious book, but rarely a heavy one: in a sprightly good-humoured way, Finkel communicates the thrill of true scholarship. . . . This book does more than change the way we imagine the sources of a Bible story, however. It rescues cuneiform from its dusty place in the museum basement. . . . Fresh and exciting." -- Sunday Times "[Finkel's] conclusions will send ripples into the world of creationism and among ark hunters." -- Guardian "Beguiling. . . . [Written] with great wit and warmth. . . . Finkel is a master at deciphering these ancient cuneiform clay tablets, but this book is far more than a fine piece of detective work: it is a humane work of scholarship that enlarges the soul." -- Observer "Self-described 'wedge reader' Finkel is a scholarly and often witty guide to the antediluvian civilization and our shared lineage. . . . Finkel's happy primer on historic Mesopotamia is, on the whole, wonderfully rewarding." -- Kirkus Reviews From the Hardcover edition., "A gem of a book." -- The New Yorker "Fascinating. . . .If you're interested in the history of religion, or detective stories--because this is definitely one--check out The Ark Before Noah ." --NY1 "[E]ngaging and informative. . . .

Synopsis
When a small, peculiar, palm-sized clay tablet made its way to the desk of Irving Finkel, Assyriologist and Assistant Keeper at the British Museum, Finkel could hardly believe his luck. What he discovered was a missing piece in the story of Noah and the Ark. In this captivating, absorbing work of scholarship, Finkel, a world authority on ancient Mesopotamia, leads the reader on a detective hunt for the prototype of Noah's Ark--from cuneiform wedges to bundles of reeds, from ancient Babylon to modern Iraq, Finkel reveals new information on the origin of the Babylonian Flood story which pre-dates the biblical deluge, including the surprising size and shape of the boat itself, and even where it came to rest. New to this edition, Finkel puts the "Ark Tablet" to the test in building a modern version of the ship. Throughout, The Ark Before Noah takes us on an adventurous voyage of discovery, opening the door to an enthralling world of ancient voices and historical lore.
