| Summary | Journey back in time to discover the fascinating histories of nine ancient civilisations; their rise, their decline and their legacies. You may know of the Vikings, the Aztecs and the Mongols -- perhaps even Minoa, Mali and Benin. But what about Kamakura, Achaemenid and Ayutthaya? This captivating collection of histories uncovers the secrets behind nine of the world's greatest empires. With exciting stories to tell of power-hungry leaders, incredible riches and legendary battles, Rise and Fall reveals why each empire rose to power, what life was like, and what led to their eventual downfall. Not forgetting the legacies -- and lessons -- they left behind for us. |
