This series of books places art in the context of peoples’ lives as they are changed by events. Each book is designed in ‘study lengths’ to introduce a subject or add to curriculum content. Together they provide a framework and a familiarity with events and their geography, providing a taste and potentially an appetite for future studies, be they in art or history.

By taking this holistic approach this book contributes to the UK Educational targets of Key Stage 3, ages 11-14:
‘know how art and design both reflect and contribute to the culture, creativity and wealth of our nation’.
This also contributes to the educational debates in the USA & Canada on the benefits of art to the health of society.
