These data bring the reader face-to-face with some of the world's expert traders, explorers and settlers. The contents page shows the scope of the material, while the index provides easy navigation through the text. Sidebar quizzes highlight historical facts. Projects such as making a Viking pendant also keep the reader engaged in the content.
