LAROUSSE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL HISTORY

The heritage of man from prehistory to the fifteenth century is set down in lively descriptive prose. Despite the title, it is a book which may be read slowly for pleasure as well as be used for reference. Over five hundred illustrations and maps--thirty-two in color--follow the text closely, page by page. Artistic design and clear organization make it a worthwhile volume--enjoyment for the teacher, dification for the layman.
