Invaluable resource for seeing history

The Adams’ Chart of History is an invaluable resource that gives world history from creation to the early 1900s. Seeing a visual of the overlapping lives of Adam and his descendants is very impactful, as well as the development of the nations of our world, along with various interesting details along the way, which are expanded upon in the Key. The printed material is a large fold out with colorful lines and drawings which captivate the attention. The digital PDF shows each panel per digital page. It allows for zooming in to read small print for in-depth study. I recommend having both the printed and digital versions to make the most of this invaluable resource. The printed version allows for taking in large portions or the timeline as a whole. The digital version allows for examining smaller sections at a time.

I'm still working through this one, but it is based on James Ussher's The Annals of the World

There is so much information on these fold out pages and it does help in some ways, but I also "get lost" at times trying to keep the information connected (but that is my fault, not the fault of the Sebastian Adams). I'm now looking for the Teacher's Guide to help me wrap my brain around all this information. This is an amazing tool, and I'm still trying to master it, but it has already helped me in several areas to get a "graphic" view in addition to the "written" view. I'm extremely happy to have this as part of my research effort.
