In this title, you can read about the story of a city. From its humble beginnings as a small farming village, it grows into a Roman fortress town, a Viking trading centre and a medieval cathedral city. One day, a fire breaks out in a bakery and spreads quickly from one house to the next. Soon, the entire city, full of closely-packed wooden buildings, is up in flames. After the devastation, what next? Each title in The Story of... series, suitable for children aged 7-11, features a stunning visual sequence in which the same viewpoint is held over time-sometimes minutes or hours, sometimes thousands of years-while the events unfold dramatically before our eyes, right up to the present day. History is brought to life as never before. Created by Q-files.com, the great online illustrated encyclopedia: the comprehensive, in-depth, expert-verified educational resource for children aged 8-13.
