About the author

John Lord

1810–1894

A 19th-century American historian and lecturer, he brought the ancient world and great historical figures to popular audiences through vivid talks and widely read books. His best-known work, Beacon Lights of History, reflects a lifelong talent for turning big stretches of history into clear, memorable stories.
