I am sure I did not read this cover to cover.

However. . . .I have recently come across a list I made in 1976 of the top 10 books I liked.

At first, I was excited. Number one book was called "Concoctions" about stuff you make at home for fun. So far, so good.

Number two book was The Story of Man and it would have been this one in our basement. Anthropology really interested me back then and I remember this book of my dad's.

So - number three book? Um. Tiger Beat. Followed by Teen Beat. Followed by Seventeen magazine. Followed by every single teen mag of the late 70's.

Dang. Just when I thought I was such a smart kid! Geeky Sara was trying to come to terms with adolescence. (Which, in itself, is very telling in an anthropological way.)

A book which would be helpful for students who are doing research on the Middle East. Ti would probably not be as useful for Teachers' use in the classroom

A fascinating look at the archaeology of caves. Goes through 7 digs by archaeologist Carleton Coon. The narrative is interesting and kept me hooked the whole book through, which is hard considering the nature of the work : ).
