Gives glimpses of some of the most characteristic features of the
countries and peoples in ancient times in the Near East: the early
herders; those living in the two great river valleys-the Nile and
the Tigro-Euphrates; and the Jews and Phoenicians living between
these two valleys. Emphasizes the ideas each culture contributed to
the general historical stream. Volume 1 in the 7-volume Streams of
History series, which presents a vivid picture of the growth of
Western Civilization from the early source of the historic stream
back in the Nile, the Tigro-Euphrates and the Indus valleys, and
then its widening and deepening as it moves westward. The series
highlights the contributions of each culture to the stream of
history and shows how its contributions are caught up and carried
on to future peoples and nations. The student is led to see how
each grows out of that which precedes, and shadows forth what
follows, and that the discovery of America, and its subsequent
institutional development was the fruitage of a seed which lay deep
in the historic soul of Europe. Suitable for ages 8 and up.
