About the Book:
From palace-based societies in Minoan Crete to the Germanic invasion of Rome, this book tells the story of these classical civilisations, covering their political development, the rise of the city state and the growth of their empires. Also included are insights into the architectural, artistic and cultural impact of early Greece and Rome and vignettes of key political and cultural figures.

This is a fascinating introduction to the two great empires that shaped the modern world.
