Ancient Civilizations by Eric Brown

Discover The Ancient Civilizations History & How They Lived
This Bundle Contains 3 Books - Incas, Maya Civilization and The Byzantine Empire

**Incas**


Have you always wanted to learn about the great Inca Empire, but your schoolteachers refuse to listen? Are you confused between Inca, Aztec, and Maya? Do you want to learn how the Inca people were unique from their Mesoamerican predecessors? Could you even draw the Inca Empire on a map?


All this and more will be covered within the pages of Incas: A Comprehensive Look at the Largest Empire in the Americas.


Inside you will find:

  • How an empire grew from such humble, and hostile, beginnings

  • The geographic location of the Empire

  • The incredible natural odds the Incan people overcame

  • An in-depth look at the Incan gods

  • The terrible Civil War

  • And more...


**Maya Civilization**


This book's coverage begins with the development of the Maya through the ancient eras, starting with their founding in Belize as a hunter-gatherer society in the Pre-Classic Period all the way through the Classic and Post-Classic Period during which they had flourished into the civilization they are known for today.
Inside this book, you will find the following:


  • The history of the Maya people and where their civilization began and expanded from

  • How the name Maya came to be used for these people

  • The growth of the Maya as they became a booming society during the Classic Period

  • When colonists began to interact with the Maya civilizations in Central America

  • Why archaeologists believe the Maya empire fell

  • And Much more


**The Byzantine Empire**


The history of the Byzantine Empire tells a tale of monumental victories and equally significant defeats--of a phoenix rising from the ashes over and over again until it simply ran out of miracles. It is also the tale of civilization which impacted and influenced virtually every one of its neighbors well after its fall and whose culture has persisted in some ways to this day.


In this book, you will learn about...

  • The Division of East and West

  • The Fall of Rome

  • Justinian's Golden Age

  • Religious Disputes

  • Iconoclasm

  • The Reign of Basil the Bulgar-Slayer

  • The Crusades

  • The Final Fall

  • And Much More...

Brown, Eric 'Winkle': - Captain Eric Brown had a 31-year career in the Royal Navy, and is the Fleet Air Arm's most decorated pilot.

After a distinguished operational tour flying from Britain's first escort carrier, he was selected as a test pilot in 1942. In his test flying career he has flown a world record 490 basic types of aircraft, and made a world record 2,407 aircraft carrier landings in fixed-wing aircraft. In 1995 he was inducted into the US Navy's Carrier Aviation Test Pilot Hall of Honor, the only non-American to have received this accolade.

In 2000 he joined a very select group, when he was invited to deliver the Lindbergh Memorial Lecture at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, and along with Neil Armstrong was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from Edinburgh University in 2008.

Now in his nineties, he still lectures regularly in Britain, Europe and America.
