Compiled by a distinguished team of historians and cartographers, this book presents the history of peoples, states and societies from earliest times to the present. An impressive source of knowledge, it is arranged chronologically and features maps, sketches and full color illustrations throughout.
Actually, I picked this book up on accident. I was looking for a similarly titled Atlas for a college class, and I ordered this one on accident. I was a little bummed about getting the wrong book, yet this little compliation of world history with lovely pictures didn't keep me depressed for too long. I actually showed it to the professor, and she contemplated using this book next semester. :)
