Babylon: Mesopotamia and the Birth of Civilization by Paul Kriwaczek
4.0
A well-researched and fairly wide-lens look at the early history of civilization in the Mesopotamian region. The title felt a little misleading given the small portion of the book that actually explored Babylon, and chunk of that frustratingly focused on coinage and finances.
Still learned a few things and enjoyed the connections made to stories I remember from the bible growing up.
