The Book of the Ancient World is an account of our common 
heritage from the dawn of civilization to the coming of the Greeks. It 
is the story of how human beings began their great adventure of learning
 how to live; of how they have sought to satisfy the practical needs of 
their bodies, the questioning of their minds, and the searching of their
 spirits. Dorothy Mills had an uncanny and unique ability to write 
history that is interesting and at the same time based on sound 
scholarship. Her direct, engaging approach is valued increasingly by the
 many parents in our day who are looking for reliable materials for 
homeschooling or home study, as well as by many private school 
educators. Angelico Press has undertaken to reprint the highly-prized 
six volumes of her historical works as part of its effort to offer texts
 ideally suited to the needs of a new generation of teachers and 
students. In a world where the quality of education has so deteriorated,
 may the reissue of this wonderful historical series shine as a beacon 
to a new generation of young (and not so young) scholars!
