Both the book and its author unexpectedly survived the war.

Some books, he said, might not survive until the new center is finished.

It was intended to be seven books in length, but only one book survives.

The book survived intact into the 20th century, only to be broken up by an American owner in the 1970's.

Of these the 11 first books have survived, covering the period down to 443.

Will this book survive, long enough to be read when time has no meaning for me personally?

While the book itself has not survived it is referred to in other documents.

Originally four books in all, only two have survived into modern times.

Only the first four books, and fragments of the fifth, survive.

The book did not survive, and is known only from descriptions in later works.
