Authors are eminent scholars and specialists in their field. The series was to "be brief, well written, based on unquestioned scholarship, assume almost no previous historical knowledge on the part of the reader, provide a coherent analysis, [and] constitute a systematic introduction to the collective memory of that tradition." Reading this collection replicates a university-level study in western civilization. *** All volumes are paperbound, in VG condition or better; format is small octavo (5.5 in. x 8.25 in.).
