Customer Review: This video was reasonably interesting, especially in its discussion of the Classic Maya Cities of Copan and Dos Pilas.

Customer Review: This is one of my family's favorite videos. Kids as young as 5 are engrossed in the footage of Vesuvius and the remains of the city of Pompeii. My son's first grade teacher has requested this video to share with all the first graders in their study of Ancieng Greece & Rome
Customer Review: having had an interest in Japanese art since childhood, this tape is a true treasure. It depicts several "living treasures" of Japan, artists and craftsmen/women.

Anna Vyrubova is not discussed at all, nor does she appear in any of the photography. To give the crumb of credit where it is due, this film does... more info
