Customer Reviews

Good whole-world overview

I've read several of the TimeFrame books. While far from comprehensive, the series does a good job of hitting the major points of world history without ignoring the fact that the continents of Asia and the Americas existed, as many 'classical' histories do.

Historic accurate and pleasant reading

I really enjoyed reading this book. It is historical accurate and a captivant reading. One of the best history-books-with-nice-pictures I ever read. Although, the author tries sometimes to apply modern concepts to ancient civilizations. Not very realistic. Good holiday reading.
