Ten Cities that Led the World: From Ancient Metropolis to Modern Megacity

Product Information

Description

Great cities are complex, chaotic and colossal. We journey back to discover Babylonian mathematics, Athenian theatre and intellectual debate, and Roman construction that has lasted millennia. His books include The English Civil War At First Hand, The Frock-Coated Communist: The revolutionary life of Friedrich Engels and Building Jerusalem: The rise and fall of the Victorian city. Each city has its own distinct personality, and Ten Cities that Led the World brings their rich and diverse histories to life, reminding us of the foundations we have built on and how our futures will be shape We are very proud to be based in Lewisham.
