Summary: This interesting, fact-filled and beautifully illustrated book tells the stories of lost
civilizations around the world. The author takes us through these lost cities starting with the Karnak
Temple and moving through various sites such as Babylon, Great Zimbabwe, Mesa Verde, Easter
Island, Machu Picchu and others. Each lost city is colorfully illustrated and includes information on
the location who lived there, why it was lost, how it was found and what makes it mysterious. This
book is very interesting and offers just enough information to make interested readers (and future
archaeologists) want more. It will pique many an interest!
Straight Talk for Librarians: The historical facts on each lost city will be great for discussions on
other cultures, archaeology, anthropology and geography.
