Written for middle-grade readers, 10 Routes That Crossed the World
explores famous roads, trails, and pathways across the globe that
have played a significant role in human history. Chapter subjects
include the first crossing of humans into North America across the
Bering Strait; the Camino de Santiago trail in Spain and its
importance to pilgrims for centuries; how the Inca Trail in Peru
helped both build an empire and facilitate its destruction; the
war-torn Khyber Pass connecting Afghanistan and Pakistan; the
building of the Trans-Siberian Railroad under extreme conditions;
the short but treacherous Chilkoot Trail, which led hopeful gold
prospectors to riches; and the Serengeti migration trail, traveled
by millions of animals and Maasai people for generations. Dramatic
fictionalized stories with accompanying artwork open each chapter,
and colorful pages include a variety of archival and modern photos.
