From the Earliest Accounts to the Fall of Rome.
First in a bold new series, 'The History Of The Ancient World' tells the stories of all peoples, connecting historical events from Europe to the Middle East to the far coast of China. Susan Wise Bauer provides both sweeping scope and vivid attention to the individual lives that give flesh to abstract assertions about human history. Dozens of maps provide a clear geography of great events, while timelines give the reader an ongoing sense of the passage of years and cultural interconnection. This is an engrossing tapestry of human behaviour which we may draw conclusions about the direction of world events and the causes behind them.
