Title: A Walk Through the Ages
Review: I have watched Clark's Civilization series at least 5 times and it still fascinates. Amazing the number of locations and the amount of history and thought covered. Even bought an out-of-print copy of the series companion book. For those who think that there are some missing items in the TV series - they would be right. He admits in the book's introduction that the title should have been "Western European Civilization from the Fall of Rome to Present" not generic "Civilization". Chinese, Spanish, Indian, et al. contributions are missing as well as e.g. the impact of Palladian architecture. That was beyond budget, time and politics. I wish Clark was around today to expand and update this great series. We certainly could use some more of his insight, wit and wisdom. And for heavens sake put it on DVD!!! Maybe include a tribute.
