How They Made Things Work! series.
Illustrated by
David Lawrence.
This series explores the technology that allowed the titular ancient civilizations to thrive. Each two-page section focuses on a particular advance or invention, with text and illustrations detailing how it was used in everyday life; there's some welcome humor in the sketchlike drawings. Unfortunately, the information can be hard to navigate across the busy spreads. Websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these How They Made Things Work! titles: The Egyptians, The Greeks, In the Renaissance, and The Romans.
