Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of the Ancient World is an account of our common heritage from the dawn of civilization to the coming of the Greeks. It is the story of how human beings began their great adventure of learning how to live; of how they have sought to satisfy the practical needs of their bodies, the questioning of their minds, and the searching of their spirits. To this end it subordinates details of political events to the record of things that lie at the foundation or our modern civilization. Dorothy Mills had an uncanny and unique ability to write history that is interesting and at the same time based on sound scholarship. Her direct, engaging approach is valued increasingly by the many parents in our day who are looking for reliable materials for home study, as well as by many private school educators. The highly-prized six volumes of her historical works (see below) have become very scarce on the used book market, and so Dawn Chorus has undertaken to reprint them as part of its effort to offer texts ideally suited to the needs of a new generation of teachers and students. In a world where the quality of education has so deteriorated, may the reissue of this wonderful historical series shine as a beacon to a new generation of young (and not so young) scholars . Dawn Chorus publishes these five other books by Dorothy Mills: The Book of the Ancient Greeks; The Book of the Ancient Romans; The People of Ancient Israel; The Middle Ages; and Renaissance and Reformation Times. Dawn Chorus has also republished another outstanding, and long-out-of-print historical series perfectly suited for home or school use (and highly recommended in home-school curricula), entitled The Picturesque Tale of Progress, by Olive Beaupre Miller. It is available in large format (9 volumes), or smaller, double-bound format (5 volumes).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Ancient World The usefulness of this book will depend largely on the teacher, and hence one or two suggestions rising out of the purpose and method of the author may not be amiss. I. The grand divisions into which the book falls are those determined by the course of historical progress. Each one of these divisions is introduced by a Prelim inary Survey of the ground to be covered in the period. It seems theoretically desirable and pedagogically useful to give the pupil beforehand a bird's-eye view of the chief stations along the pathway which he is later to travel step by step. But it is suggested that the teacher take up this Survey with the pupil, read and expound it to him, rather than assign it as a task to be learned Without the previous preparation that explanation by the teacher would give.

This book was released on 2007-03-17 with total page 897 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively and engaging narrative history showing the common threads in the cultures that gave birth to our own. This is the first volume in a bold series that tells the stories of all peoples, connecting historical events from Europe to the Middle East to the far coast of China, while still giving weight to the characteristics of each country. Susan Wise Bauer provides both sweeping scope and vivid attention to the individual lives that give flesh to abstract assertions about human history. Dozens of maps provide a clear geography of great events, while timelines give the reader an ongoing sense of the passage of years and cultural interconnection. This old-fashioned narrative history employs the methods of “history from beneath”—literature, epic traditions, private letters and accounts—to connect kings and leaders with the lives of those they ruled. The result is an engrossing tapestry of human behavior from which we may draw conclusions about the direction of world events and the causes behind them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Ancient World, Vol. 1 of 3: From the Earliest Records to the Fall of the Western Empire Such a work, to be really useful, must be condensed into a moderate compass; else the powers Of the writer would be frit tered away, and the attention of the reader wearied out, by an overwhelming bulk, filled up with microscopic details. The more striking facts of history, - the rise and fall of empires, - the achievements of warriors and heroes, - the struggles of peoples for their rights and freedom, - the conﬂict between priestcraft and religious liberty, - must needs stand out on the canvas of such a picture with the prominence they claim in the world itself. But they will not divert our attention from the more quiet and inﬂu ential working of science and art, social progress and individual thought, - the living seed sown, and the fruit borne, in the field broken up by those outward changes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Short History of the Ancient World begins with the Bronze Age and ends with the collapse of the Roman Empire. Rather than restricting his analysis to the Greek and Roman experience, Rauh introduces students to ancient Africa, Israel, Egypt, Iran, China, and the Indian subcontinent. To aid students on their journey into the ancient world, Rauh has provided key terms and definitions, "What Have We Learned" review points, and an engaging art program that includes 51 images within the "Art in Focus" and "Materials and Techniques" features. Informative maps, chronologies, and tables also give students a closer look into the rise and fall of these great civilizations. Learning extends beyond the book with UTP's History Matters website (www.utphistorymatters.com) which includes relevant essay and multiple choice questions. With A Short History of the Ancient World, Rauh has crafted a comprehensive exploration of humanity's most fascinating early civilizations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Times, a History of the Early World: An Introduction to the Study of Ancient History and the Career of Early Man Finally, when we recall that the leading religion of the world the one which still dominates Western civilization to-day came to us out of the Orient; when we further remember that before it fell the Roman Empire was completely orientalized, it would appear to be only fair to our schools to give them books furnish ing an adequate treatment of pre-greek civilization. This does not mean to question for a moment the undeniable supremacy of Greek culture, or to give it any less space than before. The author believes that no one who reads the chapters on Greece in this survey will gain the impression that Hellas has been sac rificed to Moloch in other words, to her oriental predecessors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mediterranean in the Ancient World Here again I have sought to expand my narrative; for it concerns the sphere of national character, which Is too often left out of count in naval affairs. Indeed, I regard this First Punic War as (next to that of Xerxes) the greatest of the ancient world, both in respect to the war fitness of the two opposing peoples, and to the immeasurable great ness of the results obtained by victorious Rome. On the other hand, I pass over the Peloponnesian War, because, contrary to the initial assertion of Thucydides, I consider that its results were little more than local and temporary, except in so far as it weakened the Greek race.

Book excerpt: World's Great Classics by George Rawlinson is an extensive volume on the history of the world. It covers the period of ancient history right up to the fall of the western empire. This particular text is the first part of a set of 61 books that provide one of the most in-depth analyses of the world's history and literature. It is one of the few books available that provide detailed information on entire ancient civilizations and cultures in one place. Rawlinson breaks up the historical periods in question into five different sections for easy access and quick reference. It starts with the history of ancient Asiatic and African states and moves on to the establishment of the Persian monarchy. The latter half of this work is devoted to the evolution of Greek, Macedonian and Roman empires. Rawlinson summarizes the history of Rome in World's Great Classics in the most fascinating manner with a well thought out structure dividing it into various periods for a clearer understanding of the reader. World's Great Classics is replete with an impressive set footnotes within the chapters. It is these snippets of information which fill in glaring gaps and provide context and scope for further research in this work. Written in sanguine language with a distinctive style, Rawlinson provides an authoritative undertone to this masterpiece. Whether for general readers wanting an excellent summary of ancient world history or students and scholars of the subject, World's Great Classics should be an integral part of any collection.

Thematic overviews give truly global perspectives on connections, disconnections and parallel developments shaping the ancient world. Written for students of history, classics and related disciplines, the book will appeal to anyone interested in widening their view of early history.
