Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 5-8-This lively and informative overview includes a general chapter on the Stone Age as well as chapters on ancient America, Greece, and Rome. The writing is lucid and tight, providing well-organized coverage of and focus on the basic agricultural information while offering plenty of interesting and detailed asides. Well-placed and well-captioned full-color photographs and reproductions enhance the text; chapter openers and sidebars are set off on parchmentlike backgrounds. A useful map at the beginning of the book shows the geographical areas where the cultures flourished as well as the time frames for each civilization. While this title will get heaviest use for reports, it is well written enough to sustain general readers and will leave them with a greater understanding of the foods on their plates.-Donna L. Scanlon, Lancaster County Library, PA
