You might dig Fox Margalit's book, The Riddle of the Labyrinth about deciphering Linear B. It was pretty interesting to see how you would go about something like that before computers.

Funnily enough, Dolnick references Fox Margalit's book in The Writing of the Gods. Will have to add it to the reading pile...
