This volume looks at who the Greeks were and at their world of warships, great leaders, cities and poets. It goes on to discuss their achievements in writing, maths, science and philosophy, art and architecture, music and theatre, as well as their religions and festivals.

There are fact boxes which highlight key facts and the text is supported by an array of photographs and maps. The book also features a time-line, a glossary and a full index.
