The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World by Bettany Hughes

Bettany begins with The Great Pyramid of Giza: the eternal resting place of King Khufu. Next is the Pharos Lighthouse: its beam guiding seafarers to safety and said to be visible over 30 miles away.

Bettany embarks on an extraordinary journey through Greece, exploring the tales of two ancient wonders: the Colossus of Rhodes and the Statue of Zeus

On a breathtaking journey along Turkey's west coast, Bettany reimagines the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and Temple of Artemis
