Ancient Greece: An Illustrated History: The Illustrated Encyclopedia and Comprehensive History with 1000 Images

Great value book! This is a hard back book with glossy paper and excellent photos and illustrations. It has loads of information and it easy to dip into, although I think it would be good to read whole sections too. Really excellent value and a brilliant reference book.

This is a great overview of the whole classical era in Greece. It deals with the main historical events in a chronological fashion and then focuses on issues and aspects of daily life, mythology and culture. It is expertly written and is fantastically well illustrated with evocative site photographs, drawings and beautiful artefacts. The book itself is a really attractive item. Thoroughly recommended.

I love it. great book. It is jam packed full of information and beautiful images. I would really recommend this book for anybody who is interested in history and who is learning about the ancient Greeks or who is interested in the ancient Greeks.

Excellent book , very informative and fantasticly well illustratated. Very good value for money. Would definately recomend.

Well written and well illustrated. Its structure is more that of a reference book, than a history, but it can still be read as such. This is for adults, rather than sub-teen children. A useful book in any home library.

Excellent book and beautifully illustrated. Easy to follow, even for an amateur just interested in the rich and unique history of ancient Greece. Informative and concise. Very pleased with this purchase.

Great quality finish, pictures and very well written. A mine of information. I've also bought the "Roman" equivalent, and itlooks to be similar quality.

A well-received gift for someone interested in the great civilisations of the ancient world.

My daughter is going to love for Christmas. There’s a lot of information and the pictures are great.

Imformative and interesting book with vivid images . I looked up the author after reading his book on the Roman Empire to see what else he wrote and knew I had to own this. So much of the West’s culture is owed to both the Greek and Roman civilizations and Rodgers does a wonderful job of writing about all aspects of their societies. He covers every topic you’d be curious to learn about. Reading his books will definitely expand your vocabulary as well!

I've only taken a cursory browse so far but it seems to be a solid overview of the thousands of years of Greek history based on that, the table of contents (pictured), and it's size. I'll update the review if the writing is exceedingly poor. Dust jacket got some minor scuffs during transportation but that's what it's there for, nice hard cover, the binding appears to be good, plenty of relevant photos, and the glossy pages are a plus.

Cannot comment on quality of contents but it is very nice high quality book for suee
