Timelines of World History

I bought this book because we had borrowed it from the library so many times that I figured it would be worth our while to simply have it at home! It has been tremendously helpful to each of our kids as they have taken World History at a local Resource Center for home schoolers.

Beautiful book not a mark on. Great condition for used.

While I have a shelf of timeline books and historical atlases in my home, I needed a book that would help my children easily see how events on different continents synchronized. Some of the other timeline books I have list dates for what happened on which continent but they aren't strict timelines. This book has the date on one side and across the columns will be listed anything of significance, so while there may be sections blank on one area of the world at that date, it is easy to see visually how things line up as apposed to our other books where the columns aren't justified by exact date but more by time period. It's a bit difficult to explain but if you are looking for a quick reference book to give general overview at a glance, this is a good choice. I gave it four stars because there was one I liked better with slightly more detail and better graphic design but it was in individual books for each major time period and the cost was prohibitive on that series.

It's a quick reference when I want to check to see what else was going on at the same time of whatever history book I'm reading. It's format is easy. Gives me ideas for what else I might want to read about.

Very nice book - great timelines and color. My whole family really enjoys it. We bought it used though so paid very little.

I had seen it in a library and knew it was just what I wanted for research.

Great product (just what I was looking for). Great delivery (time & condition). I would do it again, if I had the need.

beaautiful book

これは実によくできていました。

This is a superb book which I have found helpful for teaching beginners as well as older students. The maps, the time lines and major events and people across the world have been put together and is helpful in explaining to learners what was happening in other parts of the world when studying Indian history. Learners can also see how events elsewhere could influence events at home. I found it a useful gift for children. A special thanks to dealstar, the seller, who has given an amazingly affordable price for a treasure like this. Book came in good condition.

Excellent! Puts things into perspective!

Good pictures uncluded. Essential and interesting story, not so deep. Good for kids and adults too.

Es un libro bien grande y súper interesante. Están presentadas las distintas edades históricas en paralelo en diferentes partes del mundo, ayuda muchísimo a relacionar los hechos y no memorizar y repetir como loros. Las ilustraciones son geniales. Me encanta!
