Grade 6-9-Good-quality full-color photographs, reproductions, drawings, and maps combine with lucid texts to create informative and attractive research sources on ancient cultures. The Ancient Hebrews discusses the social and religious history of the Jewish people and its influence on modern Judaism, and touches on the relationship between present-day Israel and Arab countries. Mesopotamia examines the social structure and cultural history of that area and the legacy the people have left to the modern world. Clarice Swisher's The Ancient Near East (Lucent, 1995) offers a more detailed study of Mesopotamian cultures but with black-and-white images. Sidebars provide additional information on the language, literature, law, and beliefs of both societies. Helpful glossaries and time lines are also included. Eye-catching, useful titles for collections needing historical material about the Middle East. Cynthia M. Sturgis, Ledding Library, Milwaukee, OR Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Gr 6-8--Two attractive and informative series titles. Galvin presents a colorful portrait of Mayan art, poetry, religion, language, and way of life. Even reluctant readers can follow the fascinating narrative with interest. Mayan stonework and hieroglyphs are discussed, as are the development of three separate calendars and the study of astronomy. Millar looks at the Benin, which was the most spectacular kingdom of West Africa 500 years ago. She gives an overview of its history including the fact that slavery was rampant there even before Europeans came to the African coast. The author goes on to describe their belief system in gods, witches, ghosts, magic, and sacrificial rites. Both books have good-quality, full-color, captioned photographs on nearly every page. They predominantly depict ruins and artifacts, but also show modern-day members of each culture engaged in traditional ceremonies and everyday activities. Interesting research and learning tools.

At the end oftwo weeks of desperate, grinding battles, the Marines and theinfantry battalion supporting them are torn to shreds. But againstall odds, they beat back their savage adversary. The MagnificentBastards captures that gripping conflict in all its horror, hell,and heroism. “Superb . . . among the best writing on the Vietnam War . . .Nolan has skillfully woven operational records and oral historyinto a fascinating narrative that puts the reader in the thick ofthe action.” –Jon T.

On theAmerican side were three battalions of Marines under the command ofColonel Oscar Peatross, a hero of two previous wars. His opponentwas the 1st Viet Cong Regiment commanded by Nguyen Dinh Trong, aveteran of many fights against the French and the South Vietnamese.Codenamed Operation Starlite, this action was a resounding successfor the Marines and its result was cause for great optimism aboutAmerica's future in Vietnam. Those expecting a book about Americansin battle will not be disappointed by the detailed de*ions ofhow the fight unfolded. Marine participants from private to colonelwere interviewed during the book's research phase. The battle isseen from the mud level, by those who were at the point of thespear. But this is not just another war story told exclusively fromthe American side. In researching the book, t

No one in Vietnam had to tell door gunner and gunship crewchief Al Sever that the odds didn’t look good. He volunteered forthe job well aware that hanging out of slow-moving choppers overhot LZs blazing with enemy fire was not conducive to a long life.But that wasn’t going to stop Specialist Sever. From Da Nang to Cu Chi and the Mekong Delta, Sever spentthirty-one months in Vietnam, fighting in eleven of the war’ssixteen campaigns. Every morning when his gunship lifted off, oftento the clacking and muzzle flashes of AK-47s hidden in the dawnfog, Sever knew he might not return. This raw, gritty,gut-wrenching firsthand account of American boys fighting and dyingin Vietnam captures all the hell, horror, and heroism of thattragic war.
