Marshall's Treasured History of Europe, updated with over 50 classic works of art!
Beloved historian and storyteller Henrietta Marshall brings the history of a continent alive with rich historical accounts told in engaging narrative form. First published in 1920, this living book provides students with a thorough yet succinct foundation for a fascinating time in history, lavishly illustrated with historical art such as illuminated manuscripts, as well as later cultural depictions of the events therein.
Ms. Marshall's accounts begin with the Roman Empire in the fourth century, and conclude with the Reformation and Age of Exploration in the sixteenth century. We encounter emperors and empresses, popes and reformers, knights and ladies, crusaders and defenders, warriors and tyrants, inventors and navigators. We meet Constantine, Theodosius, Charlemagne, Harald, Olaf, Canute, Queen Thyra, Pepin, Rollo, Anne of Russia, Ivan the Terrible, Otto the Great, Joan of Arc, Queen Isabella and more.
This history is brought to life with full color paintings from Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Thomas Cole, Edmund Leighton, Friedrich Kaulbach, Edwin Austin Abbey and more. As with all Nourished Upon Ideas titles, artwork has been carefully selected to be suitable for all ages. This edition has been updated with expanded historical dates.
