This book is ideal for school project work or for those who want an 'at-a-glance' overview of The Great Fire of London. This work is complete with descriptions of how and where the fire started, how the people of London coped, and how it was eventually overcome. The timeline, glossary and clearly-headed spreads make it easy to refer to essential dates, facts and personalities. Maps, contemporary paintings and pictures of artefacts all help bring the topic to life.
