  This is part of a multi-volume encyclopaedia which is intended to help parents and teachers who are looking for reference books to supplement the first years at school. The range of titles reflects both the topics which are popular with this age group and the concerns of the National Curriculum, and the series is researched by Brian Williams, a former editor of the Children's Britannica , in conjunction with educational consultants. Offering an introduction to history, this book looks at famous people and events of the main civilizations, all the way back to prehistory. It also reveals how historians, archaeologists and others find out about the past.
