Sinopse

Stories from Greek & Roman History is a timeless journey through the ancient world, combining two beloved early 20th-century classics into one beautifully curated volume. Drawing from Ethelwyn Lemon’s Stories from Greek History (1908) and Lena Dalkeith’s Stories from Roman History (1909), this collection brings to life the great civilizations that laid the foundation for Western thought, governance, and culture. With vivid storytelling and carefully chosen episodes, the book introduces young readers to heroic battles, legendary leaders, and pivotal moments that shaped Greece and Rome.      From the fierce valor of the Spartans at Thermopylae to the grandeur of Julius Caesar’s rise to power, these stories are presented in clear, engaging language that captures the imagination without sacrificing historical integrity. Designed especially for children aged 8 to 15, the narratives are perfect for homeschooling, classical education, or anyone seeking an accessible introduction to the ancient world. Each chapter invites curiosity and encourages a deeper appreciation for the ideas and events that continue to influence our world today.      This edition, published by Classicus, carefully preserves the charm of the original texts while offering a fresh visual and editorial presentation for modern readers. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or student, Stories from Greek & Roman History is an essential resource that blends education with inspiration, sparking a lifelong interest in the epic drama of classical history.
