Beric the Briton: a story of the Roman invasion

This story deals with the invasion of Britain by the Roman legionaries. Beric, who is a boy-chief of a British tribe, takes a prominent part in the insurrection under Boadicea; and after the defeat of that heroic queen (in A.D. 62) he continues the struggle in the fen-country. Ultimately Beric is defeated and carried captive to Rome, where he is trained in the exercise of arms in a school of gladiators. Such is the skill which he there acquires that he succeeds in saving a Christian maid by slaying a lion in the arena, and is rewarded by being made librarian in the palace, and the personal protector of Nero. Finally he escapes from this irksome service, organizes a band of outlaws in Calabria, defies the power of Rome, and at length returns to Britain, where becomes a wise ruler of his own people.--- 12 illustrations

Leaders & Notable People

Boys reading the history of the Punic Wars have seldom a keen appreciation of the merits of the contest. That it was at first a struggle for empire, and afterwards for existence on the part of Carthage, that Hannibal was a great and skillful general, that he defeated the Romans at Trebia, Lake Trasimenus, and Cannae, and all but took Rome, represents pretty nearly the sum total of their knowledge. To let them know more about this momentous struggle for the empire of the world Mr. Henty has written this story, which not only gives in graphic style a brilliant description of a more interesting period of history, but is a tale of exciting adventure sure to secure the interest of the reader.--- 12 illustrations, Special Foreward by J.

Ancient Civilizations

Mr. Henty weaves a story of the life and times of King Richard the Lionhearted that is yet to be equalled. Cuthbert de Lance, the hero of the story, is of Norman blood on his father's side and Saxon by his mother. By timely aid to the Earl of Evesham, Cuthbert is rewarded by being allowed to go to the Crusade as his page. He gains a reputation for valor and prowess due to gallant deeds and his resourcefulness not only helps King Richard but aids Cuthbert in many a 'hairbreadth escape'.--- approx. 75 illustrations, Special Foreward by Byron Snapp

A Journey of Souls

First edition released to the public and subsequently re-released as 'Crusade of Tears,' part of the 'Journey of Souls' series. In 1212, the most tragic of all the crusades was ventured--a crusade of children in which more than 50,000 young souls set upon a determined march toward Jerusalem. The book tells the story of young Wilhelm, Karl and Maria who leave their home in the tiny village of Weyer in 1212 to join the crusade. The group will journey through Germany, across the towering Alps, and into the depths of Italy with their ultimate aim being the reclamation of Jerusalem from the Turks. Along the way, they met an aged, yet agile Pieter, and his dog, Solomon. Soon the youthful group will grow to more than 20 with the addition of other children, most of whom were destitute and unwanted. 
This heart-wrenching, nearly forgotten misadventure is now told through the lives of this brave band, these "Innocents" and Pieter, their wily priest. Their inspiring march of faith through the perilous world of medieval Europe leads them to discover what they did not expect.

The Cat of Bubastes

Imagine living in a nation where killing a sacred cat is a capital offense. Thutmose III’s Egypt, in Moses’ day, was such a region. The priest Ameres and his family live in this land. Life is turned upside down when the son, Chebron, accidentally kills the sacred cat of Bubastes. This incident leads to secrecy, grief, and flight as one harrowing adventure follows another. Their best hope of a safe haven for youthful Chebron and his sister is the land of the Rebu, itself a conquered nation under Egyptian rule. To reach that distant land, they must flee through closely guarded Egyptian exits. Then they must embark on a challenging journey through unfamiliar lands populated by unfamiliar people and conquer numerous geographical hindrances. G. A. Henty has produced a story which will give young readers an unsurpassed insight into the customs of one of the greatest of ancient peoples in the classic The Cat of Bubastes. Date: 1250 B. C. Location: Africa, Egypt Main topic: Ancient Egypt
