Description

Journey back in time to discover the fascinating histories of ten ancient civilizations.

You may know of the Vikings and the Aztecs, but what about Benin, Kamakura, Achaemenid, and Ayutthaya? This captivating collection of histories uncovers the secrets behind ten of the world's greatest empires.

With fascinating stories to tell of power-hungry leaders, incredible riches, and legendary battles, Rise and Fall reveals why each empire rose to power, what life was like, and what led to their eventual downfall. Not forgotten are the legacies--and lessons--they left behind for us.

Detail-packed illustrations by Peter Allen (Atlas of Amazing Architecture, Cicada 2021) bring the stories to life, taking young readers on an immersive voyage of discovery to the ancient world.
