The Persians: Warriors of the Ancient World (Ancient Civilizations)
Publisher: Rourke Publ | 2005 | ISBN: 1595152385 | English | True PDF | 48 pages | 9.41 Mb

An introduction to the ancient Persians, their lifestyles, kings, customs, and changes for the future.
Reading level: Ages 9 and up.

A lot of the books aimed at this age group tend to throw facts at the reader. This book is engaging and strangely hard to put down. In only 48 pages, the author manages to bring many elements of this ancient culture to life. An unexpected treat.
