dooney | Nov 7, 2008 | A Time-Life history of Japan from about 500 A.D. to near-modern times. It's not a place or period of particular interest to me, but the good folk at Time-Life do their usual fine job of making an erudite topic as interesting as possible. I think the most interesting tidbit here was that the reason that Kabuki theater actors are always men (which I knew), is that in 1629 actresses were banned from the stage when the government found that many were doubling off-stage as prostitutes, and using highly suggestive performances to promote themselves.

knipfer | Jul 21, 2008 | This series is a well-done Time-Life compendium of factual and illustrated material about various great ages of man, this volume covering ancient America (1000 B.C. to 1600). Too slim to be exhaustive, but the books are well-done and interesting,and the 1967 publishing date is not such a detriment to a history book.½
