Much of Europe and the Middle East have been governed by a king, Queen, Emperor, or Empress. These individuals in most cases began a dynasty which lasted many years, and are still reigning today. The Roman Empire grew so huge and vast that it needed two Emperors to rule both East and West, while the Middle Eastern countries suffered under their control. Russia was ruled by Tsars, and a great many dynasties existed. This book takes a look at these leaders, and uncovers the facts surrounding the reigns of these leaders.

Georgia Lucas is a master teacher who shares her actual classroom experiences along with enlightening glimpses into the everyday lives of her Indian students. This teacher's memoir spans over 20 years of living, combining anecdotes of her school, home, and social life, spiced with mysterious happenings on the Indian reservations. Upon reading this book, teachers everywhere will come to realize that they, too, have a story to tell. And students will learn to appreciate their teachers a little more as they realize what trials and struggles, as well as joy and satisfaction, are derived from teaching. ~ Arrow Point Lessoneers Mrs. Lucas was a very innovative teacher. She kept us guessing how the next lesson would be presented, and we were usually pleasantly surprised. The lessons were always stimulating. She absolutely refused to allow our minds to wander. We were not allowed to accept defeat. After 17 years, I can still hear her voice urging me to realize my full potential and to work toward my goals. Thank you, Mrs. Lucas. ~ Benetta
