The Babylonians

Our introductory "Peoples" books (The Romans, The Israelites, The Greeks and Arabia and Arabs) have been consistently successful - this is in the same mould.

Babylon/Mesopotamia are of interest to the general reader public as well as to an academic audience - our reference books in this area, plus competing titles, bear this out!

Gwendolyn Leick is already a successful author on this topic for us and other publishers.

Lively, easy to read style mean this really will be accessible to all levels of reader.
