description: Students are the central characters in these fictional but historically accurate story lines extending from the era of Anglo-Saxon England to the explorations of Vasco da Gama. As they make decisions and choose courses of action, readers put themselves in the place of a young Mayan traveling through a perilous jungle, an English serf tempted to hunt in the king's forest, or a Japanese samurai holding a man's life at sword point. Each illustrated episode is supplemented by a brief reading about the age and culture, true/false questions, and suggestions for group and individual activities. Reading grade 5. Interest grades 6-10. Bibliography. Answer key. Illustrated. Spiralbound. JWW164.
