Series Review: Exploring the Ancient WorldReading a volume in this series is like walking through a museum exhibit. The development, progression and decline of these civilizations are all presented as large images of artifacts, artwork, photographs, and colorful maps dominate the pages...The series would be a valuable addition to libraries looking to update or strengthen their collections on these particular topics, and would be a fine choice for research purposes.Library Media Connection
