"Michael Grant takes account of the most recent advances in Etruscology--excavations and research have transformed our knowledge of the Etruscans--and he describes in detail the civilization's political, economic, cultural, and social developments. He considers the controversial question of the Etruscans' origins and underscores the very marked individualities of their powerful, often mutually hostile, city-states. These differences are reflected in their diverse artistic achievements, as illustrated."--Jacket
