Verify Citation

Quoted text:

see also Driver[1] 1948: pp. 157–158

Originally in Chapter 4, this was written as “Driver 1976: 179”: the full citation was missing, and both the year and page numbers were different from what we found: G.R. Driver, Semitic Writing From Pictograph to Alphabet (Oxford: 1948), p. 157–158.

Can you help us to confirm the relevant part discussed here is on pages 157–158 of the text that we cite? It may be a different edition, or possibly the wrong text.

From our research, the author of this text, G.R. Driver, died in 1975, meaning that the original “1976” may have been either a posthumous edition we could not find that may have different page numbers or a typo. What do you think?
