Sid Meier’s Civilization
Sid Meier has been heralded as “the father of computer gaming”. Developing games since the early 1980′s, Sid Meier is best known for his work on the turn-based strategy simulation of epic proportions: Civilization.

Draconic Lore
Passing by a couple of pages tabulating and categorising the dragons herein, we come to a Welcome! which explains both that this is the first softcover book in the Legends and Lore series (although preceded by several hardbacks) and something about the contents.

La Piel de Toro
La Piel de Toro, called like that as some people think the extended skin of a bull has the shape of the Iberian Peninsula, is a description of Spain in the 1920’s for the Call of Cthulhu. As you can imagine written in Spanish, so if you don’t know the lingo, this will be of no use to you.
