Product Description

The third in the Picture History series, complementing Great Inventors and Great Explorers, is the history of the buildings that have shaped our world, ranging from Stonehenge and the Step Pyramid to the highrises that dominate city skylines today. Each page features one building: its history, architects and impact. A timeline reveals buildings constructed at the same time in other parts of the world and how they reflect their societies, putting each building into its historical context. The text and illustrations have been approved by an architectural historian. Ages 8 and up
