A Quick History of the Ancient World (Quick Histories)

0/5 ( ratings)

If we speak of the ancient world, we know what we mean. Don't we? We think of the Greeks, the Romans, and the Egyptians. But what of the ancient history of other parts of the world: of China, of India, or the Americas?

In these ancient societies, men and women began to write, think about their existence, build vast monuments and great cities, to develop art and literature, science and philosophy, to crown kings and emperors, and develop the philosophies and religions that are still with us today. Those distant ancestors of ours gave us civilisation. This is their story - and it is our story too.

Quick Histories give you all the main points in a particular historical subject, big or small, in understandable but serious language, facts you can retain and remember. All our books can be read in an hour or two, either in one sitting, or over a few days. Quick Histories are just long enough for a plane or train journey.

Language: English

Pages: 59

Format: Kindle Edition
