Central secion by Lenz was translated from German. Cover verso and copyright page bear this ownership stamp: "Library of S. Griswold Morley;" this Morley is a nonentity but his son, also FN Sylvanus, googles as a topflight mesoamerican archaeologist, a sometime Office of Naval Intelligence spy during World War I, and possibly one of the models for Spielberg's archaelogical trilogy starring Harrison Ford.
