Episodes illustrating memorable or everyday happenings have been chosen from historians or historical novels which have been particularly well visualised . The episodes are linked by short passages of explanation so that the period of history can be read as a continuous story. At the end of each myth are suggestions for activities following on from the story: writing, drawing, acting, finding out, and further reading.
