An extensive selection of primary and secondary sources is provided. Each pupil book is accompanied by a teacher's assessment and resource pack which includes photocopiable worksheets.

About this title

From School Library Journal

Gr 4-6--Crusades provides a clear description of the battles and events that occurred during that time period. In Roman Empire, chapters on its rise and on living in the Republic will be useful for reports. Short biographical sketches are included, as are chapters on emperors and barbarians. Both books give explanations and excerpts from primary and secondary sources in sidebars. While the information will be useful to students, the crowded arrangement of the text can be distracting. Both titles include extensive indexes, full-color photographs and reproductions, and quality maps. Important terms appear in bold with clear, concise definitions. Similar in scope to entries in the "World History" series (Lucent), but more attractive.
