Description
Illustrated by Steve Noon
Revised and up to date for a brand new generation!
In the bestselling A City Through Time, readers are invited to follow the progress of an imaginary city through six key periods of time, each and every captured by a scene of town and zooming in on key buildings like a Roman bathhouse, medieval castle, and a up to date skyscraper. Illustrations by award-winning artist Steve Noon provide a singular history of city life, transporting readers from an early Greek settlement to an industrial metropolis, whilst pull-outs surrounding the illustrations introduce the reader to the individuals who lived there, from Greek slaves to up to date-day commuters.
New to this edition is a photographic section exploring amazing real-life towns — from ancient Babylon to Constantinople to 21st-century Tokyo.
