1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed by Eric H. Cline, Barry S. Strauss

2.0

This was cool, but probably for someone who ABSOLUTELY nerds out on architecture.
I was definitely pulled in during the sections that involved various events in ancient history that already draw me-- but the rest read rather dry.

But if you are looking for the answer as to why early civilizations collapsed, I'll sum it up for you in this earth shattering conclusion: well, it was a combination of things.

lol, I jest. But really good work is detailed throughout! Just bear in mind, you're gonna get a lot of excerpts of ancient lists and marriage agreements.
