World in Ancient Times series.
These well-written books offer detailed accounts of the rise and fall of ancient Roman and Greek civilization; also provided are short biographies of relevant individuals and their accomplishments. The cleanly designed books, which feature lots of white space, maps, and photos, are impressively well-rounded considering how much information the authors needed to winnow. Reading list, timeline, websites. Ind. Review covers these World in Ancient Times titles: The Ancient Roman World and The Ancient Greek World.
