Invaluable Resource September 26, 2005 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Every one of these maps is worth ten thousand words. Writers of history are not always very good at describing the geography they are dealing with. I love this book, and my daughter, a high school student, also found it of great help. On several occasions, despite having studied her history book dilligently, she would look at this atlas and say "oh, now I see." Every student of history should have one.
A great achievement in graphic representation May 22, 2003 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have enjoyed studying this volume (and The Concise Atlas; the paperbound version of it) for twenty years. The graphic representations in this book of the march of history are supremely efficient and elegant. They are a delight for the eye and are brilliant intellectual summaries of trends of history. There is no close equivalent volume to this book.
