Illustrated History Encyclopedia: The Ancient Americas

Product Description

Step back in time and explore the culture and beliefs of the people that inhabited the Americas. 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. Divided into four sections, the authors cover the Aztec and Mayan world, the Inca empire, the native Americans and Arctic peoples. The result is a broad overview of these different ways of life. 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.
