Hello, I'm Jordan Rich and this is the WBZ book Club. There've been
fourteen titles so far in a series called Lost Civilizations. They're terrific books by
various authors. The newest one is due in June of this year. The
series covers civilizations from continents including Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas,
which includes the Aztecs, Inca, and Maya. These beautifully illustrated books
are a great teaching tool, but they're also fascinating. The list includes The
Indus by Andrew Robinson, The Persians by Jeffrey and Brenda Parker, The Lost
Civilization of Egypt, the book about the Goths, the Greeks, the Barbarians,
the Sumerians, the Phoenicians, the Three Kingdoms of Korea, and more.
The set would make a terrific gift for graduates for those entering high school
or college. If you're looking for a series that details the rise and fall
of ancient civilizations, the history, art, culture, and the people of
these civilizations, check out the series of Lost Civilizations books. And that's the
