from Peace Hill Press
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
This comprehensive history program helps put today's conflicts in perspective. The chapters are short, and have lots of stories, legends, and myths to keep the child interested along with the more "information" parts. Both my 7-year-old and I learned a lot.
While we are not religious, I like... more info

2.The Landmark Herodotus: The HistoriesThe Landmark Herodotus: The Histories
from Pantheon
Price: $29.70

Customer Review:
Having previously read an inexpensive edition of Thucydides' account of the Peloponnesian War, I understand the difficulty of making one's way through a book of ancient history without the aid of maps or footnotes. When I decided to read Herodotus' Histories, then, I was thrilled to find this one,... more info

Customer Review:
Having read several of Sitchin's books before I read this one, I am amazed and so grateful that he has put all the elements of his work together into this one beautiful summary. Since the whole is greater than the parts, the book just brings our comprehension up to a new level. To my way of... more info

6.Fingerprints of the GodsFingerprints of the Gods
from Three Rivers Press
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
Very entertaining and well written book, though the author fails to adequately examine the evidence, instead preferring the more sensational theories that fit his theory. Though he does raise several interesting questions, his lack of caution in drawing conclusions and his scorn for those who... more info

7.The Histories (Penguin Classics)The Histories (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $8.00

Customer Review:
I found this translation eminently readable. While I agree that the use of endnotes rather than footnotes leads to inefficient turning of pages, the substantive content of the notes added a great deal of context to the translation as a whole and made for an enjoyable and educational read.

from Princeton University Press
Price: $25.20

Customer Review:
This book is sort of rare for me, who generally reads items cover to cover. Some chapters of it were a complete treat, such as the summary of the methods of comparative linguistics. Other chapters gave you a wonderful feel for the methods scientists use to explore our past, but were far too detailed... more info

Customer Review:
If Herodotus is the Father of History, Thucydides is the first truly great historian. Building upon the foundation laid by his predecessor, Thucydides refines and sharpens the art of history into what it should have been all along. He is one of a few ancient historians whose reputation has almost... more info
