This unique guide takes a thematic approach to the past, enabling complete topics to be reviewed and assessed at a single stroke and making the subject easily accessible for the young reader.

Each section gives a broad explanation of a particular topic, while reference panels at the bottom pick out interesting detail with stimulating projects to make and specially commissioned maps, artefacts and icons.
