1.Genghis: Lords of the BowGenghis: Lords of the Bow
from Delacorte Press
Price: $16.50

Customer Review:
After a great beginning with Volume One, I had high hopes for this novel and even bought the hardcover edition in my haste...Unfortunately, the author really loses focus here (something it generally takes series book #3 or #5 to attain!)...The story becomes absorbed with petty dealing and... more info

from Bantam
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
This book is simply beautiful. Numerous times I had to remind myself that this book was fiction. The attention to detail Mr. Pressfield put into this story is simply amazing. The prose was as rich and wonderful as any author out there, living or dead. This book is why we readers read! A great, great... more info

3.1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus
from Vintage
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
I wanted to like this book and believe in the arguments that the author was making, but in the end I simply could not do it.
There was too much anecdote and speculation used to support the author's ideas about the size and sophistication of pre-Columbus populations in the Americas. A bounty of... more info

4.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

from Peace Hill Press
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
I bought this book while homeschooling my two girls. The book was such good story that I began using it for evening reading to the girls before bed (that way I got to read it too!)
I found that the narrative format (story telling) was much more engaging than a collection of facts (as textbooks... more info

from Peace Hill Press
Price: $23.07

Customer Review:
This book series is the perfect balance between a scripted, rigid history program and a completely unstructured approach to teaching history. I use it in a homeschooling history coop group with 6 girls, age 5-8. We have a great time. I use the study questions, we fill out the map, and then we do a... more info

7.The Triumph of Caesar: A Novel of Ancient Rome (Novels of Ancient Rome)The Triumph of Caesar: A Novel of Ancient Rome (Novels of Ancient Rome)
from St. Martin's Minotaur
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
A Disappointing addition to the Gordianus series. As always well researched and well related on Caesars triumphs but the plot is weak and transparent. We all thought Gordianus was dead after his last book maybe he should have been.
There is hope that Diana his daughter will take over, and... more info

from Penguin Classics
Price: $8.00

Customer Review:
If you think you cannot have at the same time a complicated job and
peace of spirit, if you think your job is too demanding, if you think
your house is a chaos that inevitably makes your nerves explode...if
you think some of that, then you should read Marcus Aurelius more info

10.Travels with Herodotus (Vintage International)Travels with Herodotus (Vintage International)
from Vintage
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
This book steals the reader away from the present in a journey through time. Although his own stories and narratives are fascinating, Kapuscinski's enlivening of Herodotus becomes what holds you. You can't help but feel excitement for the reading journey ahead when you pick the book up after having... more info
