    About this ebook

    When the Histronauts travel back in time to the Roman Empire, they'll need your help to uncover the secrets of the past. Join them on their journey as they sneak into the Roman baths, try on the armor of the legionary, make a sacrifice at the temple of the gods, ride in a speeding chariot, and meet ferocious gladiators.

    With an exciting mix of graphic novel, facts, and activity, The Histronauts series is a perfect way to bring history to life.
