About
the Series
The growth of civilization is recorded in the
history of its great cities because it is there that culture arises and
develops. In the beginning, a city is just another tribal settlement. Over time
and because of geography, a settlement grows into a village, then into a town,
and eventually into a city. Yet each city is different, and each makes a unique
contribution to civilization.
Great
Cities Through the Ages
presents four cities from their
earliest existence to the present, using history, anecdotes, and numerous images
to show how each is fascinating and remarkable in its own way.
