Review:I found this to be an extremely informative and eye opening book, one that I had a hard time putting down. I have read Kingsolver's The Poisonwood Bible and to be honest, wasn't all that impressed. Therefore, it was with some hesitation that I reached out to this book.

This book manages to neatly and concisely compile an extraordinary amount of ancient knowledge and wisdom, and serve it in an easily digestible manner. All that, and it's fun to read!
