Budding archaeologists and geographers will enjoy excavating this colorful, relatively even-handed National Geographic non-fiction tome about Iraq’s archaeological history and current efforts to preserve it. Critics may question the book's approach to preservation, especially in light of current controversy; however, the book's depiction of archeology makes it worth adding to library collections.

CIP:Archaeology gives us a window into the wondrous world of ancient Iraq, in the region once known as Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilization. Join scientists as they study the Citadel in northern Iraq; explore the ancient city of Nineveh; and see how ancient treasures help scientists reassemble the mosaic-like puzzle of Iraq's past.

Great summary and photographs of what has been discovered, preserved, and/or hypothesized about Ancient Mesopotamian civilizations despite many odds. I am struck by the similarities to Ancient Egypt and Greece and wish Western cultures were more educated about these earlier monumental achievements and treasures. I believe such an education could help reverse many prevailing and undue prejudices and help to establish peace.

It is good that it covered Iraq's most ancient cultures as well as very recent events in the country and how they have affected archaeology and the preservation of historic artifacts.

I am usually pleased by what I find in National Geographic's kids' books, and that was the case here. We used this book to supplement our first grade unit on Ancient Mesopotamia, and I think I learned as much as my daughter did. I loved the focus on archaeology and the work that goes into discovering truths about the ancient past. It made a nice complement to our more history-focused texts and really helped my daughter understand that there is still much to learn about ancient peoples.

Still reading this and Roux's Ancient Iraq. Gruber's is a National Geographic series and while it is very informative and descriptive, it does not go into quite as much detail as Roux's Ancient Iraq.
