Question
Hi Ed,
 I am looking for a book (ancient history)
about the Assumption of Mary. Can you help me?

Answer
I did a quick check withoug success.
You might look at newadvent.org -- old version of the Catholic Encyclopedia has some info.
I'm on my way out of town for 4 days.  If you need more, please write again on Thursday.  
Best wishes for a grace-filled new yar, Charlie.
