Review of 'Cro-Magnon' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

My biggest complaint is the subtitle: “How the Ice Age Gave Birth to the First Modern Humans.” What the author really means is the first modern Europeans. He neglects to include the contemporaries of Cro-Magnon living in Africa, Australia, Asia, and the Western Hemisphere in the category of “modern humans.” I would hope that if this book were revised or reissued the publishers would fix this.
