"Barbarian Tides" History of the World 3000 - 1500BC- With Illustr. Art Creations "TIME LIFE"

The Aggressive Empires; Egypt's Golden Age; The Greek Crucible; The Mediterranean Traders; Asian Evolutions; Awakening in the Americas. The volumes are richly illustrated, and designed as an introduction to the time frame covered. Especially compelling are the artists interpretations or recreations of what various ancient civilizations would have looked like – their architecture, homes, monuments, cities, daily life, jewelry, food, family life, dwellings, occupations, etc. As just one instance, the ruins of Babylon and Ur, Athens and Rome hint at the incredible richness of those fabled cities. The artist’s recreations in this series are simply mind-numbing. This is as close as you can be to actually having been there. Please see my other lovely History series time-life books on kingmidasgold2.  I combine books to save on postage
