Description

“A healthy corrective to the notion that “History is what White Men did”, and worthy of a place on every child’s bookshelf.” – Sir Tony Robinson

This unforgettable journey back through time with archaeologist and TV presenter Raksha Dave casts a spotlight on forgotten histories and misrepresented stories. Told through 50 objects, this groundbreaking book offers a fresh perspective on our past to inspire you to build a better future.

Spanning five continents and covering thousands of years, this inclusive book reveals:
THE BLACK PHARAOHS WHO RULED ALL OF EGYPT
THE INDUS CITY THAT CARED ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE
THE CITY IN ANCIENT TURKEY WHERE GENDER EQUALITY FLOURISHED
And much more!
