In Ancient Greece
Russell Roberts
Library Binding (Mitchell Lane Publishers, Nov. 17, 2009)Ancient Greece was a civilization that still fascinates us today. It was a world of gods and goddesses, of fabulous pageantry and splendor, and of beauty and grace. Even though it existed thousands of years ago, ancient Greece is very much alive for us right now. People still read the story of Odysseus and his long journey home, study Greek society because it was the birthplace of democracy, and even visit Greece itself to walk among the ruins of once-glorious buildings like the Parthenon. What was it like to live in ancient Greece? What was it like to be a boy or girl there? What did they eat? How did they dress? Where did they live? The answers to these questions might surprise you!

Ancient Greece

This look at the culture that most influenced Western society tells how the Greeks made war and worshiped their gods, and examines their legacy of science, medicine, philosophy and art. "While there are other titles that share the focus, age level, and general coverage of this volume, it's hard to beat the attractiveness of the layout and the beauty of the illustrations found here. This book is a worthwhile purchase, even for collections that already include other titles on the topic."--School Library Journal.
