Summary: The Olympic Games and Much More
Review: This exceptional romp explores much of the world, beginning in Northern Mexico, continuing through parts of the U.S. and moving on through nearly all the Mediterranean world. Though it doesn't stop there. It sneaks on into French Polynesia, of all places. Yet every chapter is fresh and remarkable, full of spirit and information, like the origin of the Olympic Games, banking and commerce, and that ever-present doubt in all our minds: how on earth did anyone get the idea to build Venice!!! And keep it afloat. This book makes good reading, good gift giving, and good studying because Carol Miller's books are never dull, never banal and never boring.
