Think that Ancient Egypt is just a load of old obelisks? Don`t bet your afterlife on it. Ancient Egypt should be deader than most of our yesterdays. After all it was at its height 5, 000 years ago. Yet we still marvel at its mummies & ponder over its pyramids. It`s easy to forget these people once lived & laughed, loved & breathed.. .though not for very long. These were dangerous days for princes & peasants alike. In Ancient Egypt
- a world of wars & woes, poverty & plagues
- life was short. Forty was a good age to reach. A pharaoh who was eaten by a hippo ended up as dead as a ditch-digger stung by a scorpion. Unwrap the bandages & you`ll find that the Egyptians` bizarre adventures in life were every bit as fascinating as the monuments they left to their deaths.

DANGEROUS DAYS IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE is the first in a new adult series by Terry Deary, the author of the hugely bestselling Horrible Histories, popular among children for their disgusting details, gory information & sharp wit, & among adults for engaging children (and themselves) with history. The Romans have long been held up as one of the first `civilised` societies, & yet in fact they were capable of immense cruelty. Not only that, but they made the killing of humans into a sport. The spoiled emperors were the perpetrators (and sometimes the victims) of some imaginative murders. DANGEROUS DAYS IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE will include some of the violent ways to visit the Elysian Fields (i.e. death) including: animal attack in the Coliseum; being thrown from the Tarpeian Rock
- 370 deserters in 214 AD alone (or if the emperor didn`t like your poetry); by volcanic eruption from Vesuvius; by kicking (Nero`s fatal quarrel with the Empress Poppea); from poison mushrooms (Claudius); by great fires; torturous tarring; flogging to death; boiling lead (the invention of `kind` Emperor Constantine); or being skinned alive by invading barbarians.DANGEROUS DAYS IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE looks at the back-story leading up to the victims` deaths, & in doing so gives the general reader a concise history of a frequently misunderstood era.

Facing feuds & frauds, robberies & riots & the disasters of dangerous drivers, deadly designers & sleepy signalmen, Victorians risked more than just delays when stepping on a steam train. Victorian inventors certainly didn`t lack steam, but squabbling over who deserved the title of ` The Father of the Locomotive` & busy enjoying their fame & fortune, safety on the rails was not their priority. Brakes were seen as a needless luxury (until a steamer started to slide downhill towards disaster) & boilers had an inconvenient tendency to overheat & explode, & in turn, blow up anyone in reach. Four years after a mysterious murderer left only his victim`s crushed hat & walking stick on board a first class carriage, the nation trembled at the trains once more. Poorly timed repairs caused a locomotive to derail & crash into the shallow River Beult, killing ten passengers & injuring 40 more. The infamous Staplehurst disaster is said to have traumatised passenger Charles Dickens, threatening to expose his affair with the young Nell Ternan, & altering his health & writing for the rest of his life. Often recognised as having revolutionised travel & industrial Britain, Victorian railways were perilous. Few other histories honour the lives of the people killed or injured by the diseases & disasters which accounted for thousands of deaths. The victims of the Victorian railways had names, lives & families, & they deserve to be remembered... ...
