Publisher's Note
Compact in size and modest in price, Rizzoli's new history series offers an imaginative, authoritative introduction to life in the world's most important ancient cultures. Each title covers the period representing the height of that civilization's history, and introduces readers to the richness and diversity of daily existence in the physical as well as the spiritual world. Written by historians who are also skilled storytellers, these handsomely designed volumes provide an overview of each civilization's achievements in politics, art, war, and science. Each is filled with anecdotes about real people and incidents that show remarkable similarities to our own experiences -- stories to which contemporary readers can relate. Celtic divorce law permitted a woman to divorce her husband if he no longer pleased her. The Vikings, a feared race of marauders, crafted unbelievably beautiful jewelry and toys for their children. In Rome, there was fierce debate about life after death, and in Egypt, in an age of military expansion, a woman became pharaoh. A wealth of color photographs illustrates artwork, craft, artifacts, architecture, clothing, and jewelry, turning each beautifully jacketed book into a visually stunning, historically accurate keepsake.
