Review
"An impressive novel, obviously written with love and care. Informative, but highly entertaining." --John Jakes
"Magnificent; a smooth blend of superb archaeology and wonderful story!" --Andrew M. Greeley
"A novel of suspense as well as a book to give you joy--and goosebumps....Knowledge illuminates even the smallest background detail yet never gets in the way of a great adventure tale, throbbing with life and death....
"The Gears show us an entire people shaped by spiritual values and thoroughly developed belief system. For this reason, as well as the fascination of their irresistible cast of characters, "People of the Earth" is the most convincing reconstruction of prehistory I have yet read.
"I shall read it again. It is a book to enjoy more than once." --Morgan Llywelyn
