Beautiful Historical/Mythological Book. It Just Rocks!!, October 13, 2007
This review is from: Lost Realms of Gold: South American Myth (Myth & Mankind , Vol 10, No 20) (Hardcover)
This book is a great cross reference between both reality and fiction. The stories presented by Lost Realms give the myth of The Incas as well as provide a large amount of historical as well as archaelogical information about their culture then and now. The book also does a great job of composing a fluent and entertaing air that keeps the reader interested.
The book is as well simply a marviously brilliant book for its amazing ability to tie together cultures as well as present universal and primal myths of the world so clearly. An amazing and elaborate work yet easy for anyone to understand "Lost Realms of Gold" is a joy to read as well as to browse.
I would recommend all other books in the Time-Life "Myth and Mankind" series; which do a superb job of tying in the major cultures of the world together.
