Gladiators and the Story of the Colosseum
From the Stories From History series, Gladiators and the Story of the Colosseum takes a completely factual look at The Roman Colosseum, the largest amphitheater in the Roman empire. This book is presented in a fast-paced, edgy graphic novel format including bright, action-packed scenes.

A Heart Wrenching Account
The Colosseum set the stage for making people famous or leading them to their deaths. Inside the walls, huge battles were waged among gladiators, animals, Christians and prisoners, all seen by thousands of spectators.

Gladiators and the Story of the Colosseum is sure to capture any reader's attention and turn even the most casual reader into a history buff!

    I'm so glad I took the plunge and ordered it July 29, 2009
    Reviewer: Keeley B. from Franklin, TN  
    ...I bought the historical graphic novels as a way to get my middle schooler into reading something somewhat educational. =D  I didn't hand them to him, I told him they were mine.  He could read the Tintin, but I was going to read these historical ones first.  Muhahahaha.  Of course, he started sneaking them....and enjoying them.... =D =D

    So anyway, we've been having just a delightful time with the shipment of books.  I'm so very impressed with your company.  The confirmation email came immediately, the books were shipped out very quickly, and arrived in absolutely excellent condition.   Thank you so very much.
