Description

Warning: Criminals from different times and places lurk within these pages. An interactive adventure through time, finding misdeeds and learning about historical punishments.

Spot criminals in Ancient Greece’s marketplace, lawbreakers in rough-and-tumble Sacramento, and wrongdoers in medieval Canterbury in this interactive history adventure.

Devious red herrings and shocking-but-true facts add to this fascinating overview of crime and punishment across history.
