Book Reviews of Atlas of World History
Book Review: As a reference source, as a history book, as a bargain, this atlas is TOPS!
Summary: 5 Stars
A single volume; a great price; wonderful, clear illustrations and fascinating text -- this is a superb one-volume companion for any reader of history who wants to be able quickly to visualize the geography he or she is reading about. The maps are clear and excellent, and the index is comprehensive, giving the book great utility as a reference source. But the book is more than a reference; each two-age spread is its own self-contained "chapter" of fascinating, well-written historic insights and timeline-analysis into a region's or a period's history. Some reviews fault the book for being Eurocentric; on the contrary, I found that its "global" approach -- given the size constraints of a one-volume, manageable book -- was refreshing and modern. Hunt the internet for more inexpensive copies; I got it new from the Chicago Theological Seminary Co-op bookstore at a great price.
