Book Reviews of Ancient Civilizations (3rd Edition)

Book Review: Not a Good Choice for History Class
Summary: 1 Stars

I do not feel that this books is a good choice for Ancient History class. The book goes more into the archeological aspect than the history. I found my instructor inundating us with notes that were not in the book because of this.
