great book for introducing late children - pre teens into the past

Ive read & own all the books from the Illustrated series from Hermes House. This book is sort of split into two parts, there are activities for childern (which was no interest to me) on the bottom of most pages, where they have projects to make and do, then the information part covering 70% of the page. I wasnt going to buy the book because of the activities, yet after reading a section at a bookstore, i noticed that there was alot of information that would interest a person of my age (25). While not heavy on detail, it does list all main points and facts, complete with picutres etc and covers a wide range of topics. Im very happy with it.
