> Narrated by Stacy Keach, The Myth of the Ten Lost Tribes merges
> evocative music, luxuriously textured graphics, photographs, and
> text in a kind of mystery/documentary about one of history's
> unexplained episodes. In the eighth century B.C., the Assyrians
> conquered and exiled part of the kingdom of Israel to what is now
> Syria and Iraq. These exiled Ten Tribes effectively disappeared, and
> following their traces is the subject of this CD. Selecting a
> country from a globe brings up stories of modern Jewish communities
> throughout the world whose roots may be connected to the lost
> tribes. A section called the Quest lets you travel to Ethopia,
> China, and Japan in search of clues. Biographies and letters bring
> us closer to the personalities involved, past and present.

> The ancient artwork, gorgeous backdrops, and excellent narration
> give this production the feel of a PBS slide show documentary. The
> soundtrack, some of it ancient period music, adds a rich dimension
> to the program. The graphics and large text make the information
> easy enough for kids to absorb, while being informative enough even
> for knowledgeable adults. One navigational quirk is a bit confusing
> at first: the page turn arrows are reversed, but once you realize
> that, it doesn't present a problem. The subject may be considered
> too specific to make a good general family title, but the production
> is superlative.
