AN ACCUMULATED PILE OF INTERESTING STORIES THAT UNFOLD WITH FAMOUS PAINTINGS, THINKING NOTES AND REAL TEXT OF HERODOTUS

Do you know who "the Father of History" is? This book is about Herodotus who was an ancient Greek historian in the fifth century B.C. He was the first historian known to collect his data systematically and critically. He then arranged them into a historio-graphic narrative. This is a fascinating story about Herodotus with lovely illustrations for teenagers.

Recommended: To teenagers who think history is boring and have given up on the subject. You have nothing to lose in trying one more harmless book. It's not even that long.
