About the Books
Each hardback title in this collection focuses on a single era or civilisation, giving young readers a clear, bite-sized introduction without overwhelming detail. Introduction to Ancient China explores the inventions and daily life of one of the world's oldest civilisations, while Introduction to Celts and Introduction to Romans uncover the warriors, craftspeople, and empire-builders who shaped early Europe. Introduction to Ancient Greeks looks at the myths, gods, and remarkable achievements of Greek civilisation, and Introduction to The Maya reveals the mathematics and mystery of this ancient culture. Introduction to Industrial Revolution explains how invention and industry transformed the modern world, and Introduction to Discovering the Past shows children how archaeologists piece together history from the clues left behind, digging up secrets of the past. Rounding out the set, Introduction to Strange Places investigates unusual and mysterious historical sites around the globe, while Introduction to The Victorians and Introduction to Vikings bring two of Britain's most fascinating eras vividly to life, from grand inventions to daring longship voyages. Each hardback book is generously illustrated and written in an approachable, engaging style that supports independent reading, classroom topic work, and homework projects, helping children build knowledge and confidence with every page. With ten different subjects to explore, children can read the set in order or dip into whichever era captures their imagination first, making it a flexible resource for both structured learning and independent discovery.
