Traces the career of the young scam artist Curzio Inghirami whose "findings" reached the Vatican shortly after Galileo was condemned by the inquisition, inspiring participants on both sides of the affair to clash again - this time over Etruscan history. Written with humor and energy the author tells about Curzio's far-reaching pranks.
