Civilizations of Ancient Iraq

This is my guidebook for The Epic of Gilgamesh. I chose it because it was listed as a source in Andrew George's translation of The Epic of Gilgamesh. My reason for choosing this particular book was to obtain a better understanding of the cultures and empires that produced Gilgamesh or who knew the Gilgamesh story.

A fantastic companion to The Epic of Gilgamesh with a broad overview of the empires that made up ancient Mesopotamia.
