This book is ideal for school project work or for those who want an "at-a-glance" overview of the great fire of London. This work is complete with descriptions of how and where the fire started, how the people of London coped, and how it was eventually overcome. The timeline, glossary, and clearly-headed spreads make it easy to refer to essential dates, facts, and personalities. Maps, contemporary paintings, and pictures of artifacts all help bring the topic to life.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. London, Saturday 1 September 1666: lumbering wagons squeeze their way through the narrow streets, with fights often breaking out between drivers over right of way. Wooden bollards line the street; pavements have yet to be built. Filth and sewage lays waiting to be cleared by 'rakers', stinking in the hot dry weather. An easterly wind arises. At some time after midnight the Great Fire began. A great introduction to the Great Fire of London for children at KS1 and KS2 that includes extracts from Samuel Pepys' diary, photographs of historical artifacts and a look at fire fighting before the fire broke out and after. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001326779
