An excellent study guide for understsanding the basic text.

The study guide helps in the process of understanding the narrative of the main text. The multiple choice answers gives a correct explanation for each of the five answers. The guide has a summary for each chapter with an outline of the principle learning objectives of the chapter, a summary, study outline, and to check understanding there are review questions, and study-review exercises, issues for essays and discussion, questions on major political ideas, geography, and problems for further investigation.

Made For A College Student, But Great For High Schoolers

This rather large book is great for those taking the Advanced placement European history exam. It is clear and concise. Its content is rather wordy but it includes many topics in each subject. For example, in the Chapter of the Rennaissance, it shows what the men were doing and the women's role in that time period. It also adds details about major battles, important writers and artist of that time period. The Ap European Exam includes a lot of this imformation that will surely be found in this book. I liked the book because of its complete source of information pertaining to the AP european exam. If you want a great score on the exam this book is for you. The study guide made for this book is also a great outline and preview to each chapter and is very helpful in taking the test.
