1.World Without EndWorld Without End
from Dutton Adult
Price: $21.00

Customer Review:
This book made a great summer read! I found myself picking it up every chance I got because I couldn't wait to find out what would happen next. There are many stories and characters (100's) intricately woven together. I imagine that if soap operas had existed in the middle ages, the storylines would... more info

2.A World Lit Only by Fire: The Medieval Mind and the Renaissance: Portrait of an AgeA World Lit Only by Fire: The Medieval Mind and the Renaissance: Portrait of an Age
from Back Bay Books
Price: $10.87

Customer Review:
I was expecting a history book. I love history books. This was more of a history story, a fireside tale of history. That's ok -- I can take that. It reminds me of Undaunted Courage by Stephen Ambrose -- about the Lewis and Clark expedition.
While *not* a comprehensive history of the Middle... more info

3.Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern WorldGenghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World
from Three Rivers Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
This is a superb history of Genghis Kahn and the Mongol Hords, without the European and Islamic biases that go with it. The Mongol conquerers and rulers come across as more competent and, dare I say it, more tolerant than the people they conquered, albeit part of the same milieu of conquering,... more info

5.The Other Boleyn GirlThe Other Boleyn Girl
from Pocket Star
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
Of course this isn't historically accurate... its "Historica FICTION". The purpose of it is to be entertaining based on events... and that it is!

6.Universe of Stone: A Biography of Chartres CathedralUniverse of Stone: A Biography of Chartres Cathedral
from Harper
Price: $18.45

Customer Review:
Why would someone write a biography of a BUILDING? Well, if you've ever been to Chartres Cathedral just a few dozen miles south-east of Paris, you'd know why. Chartres continues to provoke us with its emotive power, and its place in the history of Gothic architecture is firmly secured at "page 1" in... more info

from Anchor
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
When I first heard the title of this book I decided not to read it, despite my pleasure in Cahill's prior book, "The Gift of the Jews". After a couple of lukewarm recommendations from friends I respected, I picked up a copy through Amazon.com and put it on my shelf of books to read.
When I got... more info

9.The Iliad of HomerThe Iliad of Homer
from University Of Chicago Press
Price: $11.34

Customer Review:
I love Greek mythology, so this sparked my interest. I had to read it for college and struggled through the first portion of it since it dealt with every man who was dying on the field. A brief description was given for each man. These were not the main characters so I didn't really care, but the... more info

from University Of Chicago Press
Price: $11.00

Customer Review:
I generally do not review classics, because I find it impossible to adequately review a genuine classic with the necessary brevity. However, I plan on giving my opinion at some point on books with conflicting Amazon reviews, and it occured to me that readers ought to have a touchstone by which to... more info
