Description
1769 Ancient History Rollin Greek Babylon Persia EGYPT Alexander the Great 14v
Charles Rollin was an 18th-century French historian and teacher known for his works ‘Ancient History’ and ‘Roman History.’ While both works were very popular during Rollin’s life, neither is considered highly accurate today. Both works were composed during a period in his life when he was banned from teaching for his religious beliefs.
‘Ancient History’ discusses the important facets of the histories of Greece, Egypt, Carthage, Assyria, Babylon, Syracuse, Persia, Macedonia and other kingdoms near the Middle East. Rollin covers commerce, military and war, religion and idol worship, arts and sciences, and conquests of Alexander the Great, as well as Biblical references.
