Man on earth Book

I especially enjoy the experience of reading exceptionally crafted spellbinding books on humanity and its impact on culture and sustainment of life. John Reader’s 1988 “Man on Earth” book gave me a reading joy I will long cherish. His book traces human development from the cultural history of Incas, Blackfoot Indians of North America, Hutterite, Todas and Yaps from their early times to our current age. His writing also discusses Roman, China, India, and Kenyan cultures. Also, his portral of Cleveland, Ohio and Switzerland Alp societies are amazing. John Reader concludes his book with 45 pages of 126 pictures that show in real life the cultures and people he profiles. His book has an “honored” place on my reading shelves. (P)
