Combining world culture, history, geography, and architecture, this
visually stunning look at ancient cities around the globe takes
readers to such places as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the cliff
dwellings of Mesa Verde, and the mysterious sculptures of Angkor
Wat. Perfect for fans of This Is How We Do It and Atlas Obscura.
What would it be like if you lived a thousand years ago? To pass
through the Hanging Gardens of Babylon on your way home? Or gaze at
the stars from your cave dwelling in Mesa Verde? On mountaintops,
deserts, and the banks of rivers, ancient cities that once thrived
have become lost to time. But in their ruins, we can find clues of
the past and the extraordinary lives their residents lived. All it
takes is a simple question: What was life like before? Beautiful
illustrations, masterfully crafted from layers of cut paper, ask
readers to spend a day in the footsteps of someone from thousands
of years ago.
