This review is from: Africa's Glorious Legacy (Lost Civilizations) (Hardcover)
Africa's Glorious Legacy (Lost Civilizations) , by Time-LifeBooks, was a historical, somewhat inspiring book. More facts and proof than almost any other "lost history" book I'e read, I found the layout of the different proofs well organized and pretty easy to read. However, although this book was very good historically, I found it lacking in adventure and depth. The width of the story was well off, varying lost civilization to lost civilization, but how much can be actually believed, I don't know. Facts are good, but can those facts be backed up by other facts? Also, this book was in need of a boost around the middle of it-- In my opinion, the whole "amazing", "facinating" edge began to run out; in other words, more interesting notions could have been added. Overall, a good book for "history-buffs" and those who believe in "conspiracies", but everyone else, my suggestion is don't bother.
