Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The complete story of Carthage in one illustrated volume: the city that Rome tried to erase and the people who built it.Carthage began as a colony from Tyre, grew into the greatest sea power of the western Mediterranean, fought Greek Sicily for centuries, and then went to war with Rome. Its generals Hamilcar and Hannibal nearly broke the Roman Republic. Then Rome besieged the city for three years and burned it in 146 BCE. Yet the site lived on, as a Roman capital of Africa, a city of martyrs and of Saint Augustine, and a Vandal and Byzantine prize, until the Arab conquest of 698 CE.CARTHAGE follows that whole arc. You will stand at Himera, Cannae and Zama, meet Elissa, Hanno, Hannibal, Masinissa, Scipio and Cato, and walk the harbours, walls and streets of the city itself.This is also a book about how people lived. Separate chapters explain how Carthaginians quarried and laid stone, built with mud-brick and mortar, planned their tall houses, stored and drained water, ran estates, baked bread, pressed oil, dyed purple cloth, minted coins, traded across the sea and buried their dead. The Tophet and the question of child sacrifice are treated frankly as the open scholarly debate they are.Most of what we know was written by Carthage's enemies. Every chapter ends with The Historian's Verdict, a clear look at what the evidence proves, what it suggests and what remains unknown. Three Cultural Interludes follow Dido through literature and music, Hannibal through the centuries, and the archaeologists who recovered the city. Appendices include rulers and commanders, a timeline, a glossary, a cast of characters and a guide to sources. More than 270 illustrations and three maps bring the Punic world to life.If you enjoyed SPQR, HELLAS, EGYPT or KNIGHTS, CARTHAGE continues the series.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - How does a family come to a hill in a small New York town This is the family history of the Dodges and Giffords, written for every Dodge and Gifford who wants to know where they came from, and it starts in Almond in July 1974, when a New York State Police trooper was laid to rest above the town.Following the records generation by generation, it travels from Almond and Hornell to the farms of Tioga County, Pennsylvania, and then to a fork in the road: two possible fathers for one man, and two possible histories. One leads through Poughkeepsie, Long Island and Block Island; the other through Oxford, Brookfield, Wenham, Beverly and the villages of Somerset. Alongside them runs the Gifford side, from Howard, New York back to Dartmouth, Sandwich and the Plymouth Colony.A full section, The Old Countries, turns to the places in Europe: the stone villages of Somerset, the Dodges of Stockport in Cheshire, the Giffards of Normandy, the English towns whose names crossed the Atlantic, and the Low Countries and the Rhineland.Written as narrative nonfiction, the book shows its evidence: census pages, obituaries, church registers, gravestones, draft cards, wills and genealogies are reproduced beside the people they describe, and every claim carries a confidence rating of high, medium or low. It sets out both Dodge lines fairly and lets the reader decide. Maps and a migration timeline trace the journey, a Who's Who and an index keep the cast straight, a plain-language guide explains how a Y-DNA test could settle the question, and family record pages are left for your own photographs and stories. Other chapters examine the family tales of Jesse James and Native American ancestry, and the Dodge coat of arms and why it cannot be assumed.Illustrated throughout with painted scenes of the places and eras.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The story of a civilization that vanished from memory and was found again in the sands of Central Asia.About four thousand years ago, between the Kopet Dag mountains, the Karakum desert and the river the Greeks called the Oxus, farmers and traders built fortress-palaces of mud brick, dug canals, worked bronze, silver and stone, and linked their oases with Mesopotamia, Iran and the Indus valley. Archaeologists call it the Bactria-Margiana Archaeological Complex. It left no readable writing, and it was not recognized until Soviet excavations at Gonur Depe and other sites in the 1970s.In 44 chapters this book follows the discovery, the land and the first farmers, the cities and their architecture, water, food, homes, clothing, crafts, trade, weapons, ritual, burial and society, the questions that remain open about language, ancestry and religion, the collapse of the cities, and the later history of Bactria and Margiana under Persians, Alexander, the Greco-Bactrians, the Kushans and the Silk Road, down to modern archaeology.Because the evidence is archaeological, every claim is labelled as excavated fact, scholarly interpretation or speculation, and every chapter ends with The Historian's Verdict on what we know and what we do not. Illustrations are artistic reconstructions based on excavated plans and finds. Appendices give key people and rulers, a timeline, a guide to the evidence, a list of terms and a cast of people.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The complete story of the Inca and the Andean world in one illustrated volume: from the first cities of Peru to the empire the Inca called Tawantinsuyu.Across 50 chapters this book moves from Caral, Chavin and the great coastal and highland cultures that came before, through the rise of Cuzco, the conquests of Pachacuti and his successors, the roads, bridges and storehouses of the empire, and the civil war and Spanish conquest, to the Inca legacy in the Andes today. You will stand at Cuzco, Machu Picchu, Cajamarca and Vilcabamba, and meet the rulers, officials, weavers, farmers and runners who made the empire work.This is also a book about how people lived. Separate chapters explain Inca stone masonry, terraces and engineering, the ayllu and the Andean table of potatoes, maize and quinoa, cloth as the highest wealth, medicine, children, law, music, women, religion, sacrifice and burial.The Inca had no alphabet, and most written accounts come from Spanish chroniclers after the conquest, so every chapter ends with The Historian's Verdict on what the chronicles claim and what archaeology shows. Cultural interludes explore Quechua song, the search for Vilcabamba and the Columbian exchange. Appendices give rulers and officials, a timeline, a guide to the evidence, a list of terms and a cast of people.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The history of Islam and the Muslim world in one illustrated volume, from pre-Islamic Arabia to the present day.In 60 chapters this book follows the story of a faith and of the many societies that grew around it: Arabia before Islam, the life of the Prophet Muhammad as the earliest sources report it, the first caliphs, the Umayyads and the Abbasid golden age, the cities, schools and trade networks of the medieval world, the Turks, the Crusades and the Mongols, Islam in Africa, South and Southeast Asia, the Ottoman, Safavid and Mughal empires, and the modern world. It treats the Muslim world as many regions with their own histories, not a single block.The book also shows how people lived. Separate chapters describe how mosques, houses, markets, bridges and hospitals were built, how families ate, dressed, worked, studied and were buried, and how law, learning, trade and science developed.Care has been taken to separate what Muslim tradition holds from what historians can verify, to cite sources, and to treat conflict and conquest frankly and fairly. In keeping with Islamic practice, the illustrations show places, buildings, objects and ordinary people of later centuries, and never depict the Prophet, other prophets, angels or the early companions. Every chapter ends with The Historian's Verdict on what the evidence shows. Appendices give rulers, a timeline, a guide to the evidence, a list of terms and a cast of people.…
