  • Marvelously moving book of the people who once lived on our earth!

    Had read it years ago. Got a copyin French so wanted to resuscitate a language I had majored in 70 years ago in college. After this had resuscitated my French enjoyed the epic story all over again. Will continue to read other books in the series. Auel isa wonderful and historically correct story teller.
