A history of the world in 25 cities / written by Tracey Turner and Andrew Donkin ; illustrated by Libby Vander Ploeg.
Curious readers who want to explore world history can visit cities from every inhabited contintent on earth. Each carefully researched map takes readers on a city tour at a unique moment in time—from exploring Athens in ancient Greece during the birth of democracy, to walking the beautiful lamplit streets of medieval Benin, deep in the West African rainforest. Readers can even visit China’s long-lost capital city of Xianyang—a city for which no original map exists, which was brought to life with support from the British Museum‘s fantastic team of experts. Cities featured include Jericho, Memphis, Athens, Xianyang, Rome, Constantinople, Baghdad, Jórvík, Benin City, Tenochtitlán, Granada, Beijing, Venice, Delhi, Cuzco, Amsterdam, Sydney, Paris, London, Bangkok, Saint Petersburg, New York City, Berlin, San Francisco, and Tokyo, plus an exploration of Cities of Today and Cities of Tomorrow. from Amazon.com
