Five stars are not enough!

Every once in a great while a truly magnificent photographic journal appears. THIS IS ONE OF THE GREAT ONES. I waited months for this to be published, and I can truly say that this far surpassed any of my expectations. It is a visual feast, each page a magical photographic account of the mystery of a lost civilisation. The power and beauty of the Ancient Ones and their structures, their homes, are laid forth in these pages.The written commentary is just enough to enhance the visual images. Thanks to both Val Brinkerhoff, and to A. Dudley Gardner for this exquisite piece of work. I highly recommend this, even for those with no prior knowledge of these peoples and their architecture. And for those who love and are fascinated by these ancient cultures, this is a must. A feast for the eyes and the heart.
