{"product_id":"gladiators-rachael-hanel-9781682778128","title":"Gladiators","description":"When there was a battle to be fought, these warriors were there: gladiators, conquistadors, ninjas, Vikings . . . From Roman arenas to the lawless high seas, this series for readers age 12 and up spotlights the world's most fearsome combatants. Each title surveys the history of a fighting group, examining key leaders, weapons, skills, rules of warfare, and reasons for existing. Gladiators fought not for land or riches but for the violent, bloody entertainment of the emperor and people of Ancient Rome. Slaves, criminals, hostages, and occasional volunteers faced each other in amphitheater battles for one purpose: to kill or be killed. Strong and well-trained, they were the equivalent of modern-day sports heroes. This title for readers age 12 and up surveys the history of the warriors. It covers key fighters, weapons, combat skills, and rules of warfare. Includes a glossary, sidebars, index, and further resources.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rachael Hanel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1682778126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781682778128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Creative Paperbacks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.9\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e116252 \/ Gladiators\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Rachael Hanel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47244209357055,"sku":"9781682778128","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e5e4245e-f3c0-40cf-a6c4-47bab95729a0.jpg?v=1758135197","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gladiators-rachael-hanel-9781682778128","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
