In this title, you can read about the story of transport. The action begins in ancient times. The Romans conquer the land and build the first roads. Soon, people are getting about in carriages and sailing ships. Fast forward to the 19th century, and the age of trains and, later, motor vehicles is upon us. But the most dramatic advance in transport technology happens just over 100 years ago... 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.
