This review is from: Usborne Timelines of World History (Hardcover)
I really like it. It is well illustrated and easy to follow. This book definately is not for the ages recommended. It is much more appropriate for middle & high school age kids. Actually, it is probably a very good overview for college survey courses. The reading level is probably closer to 10th grade.

World History Teacher,
This review is from: Usborne Timelines of World History (Hardcover)
This book is pretty good with historical events. It is colorful and full of graphics which depict the area and time period being discussed. So often, history is taught by teaching all the historical event in one area then all the historical events in another. This book is very good at discussing all the historical events all over the world in a praticular time period.

I didn't know there were two editions of this EXCELLENT!!!!!!!! book............I gave my 8.5"x11" copy to a friend when I placed this order........I'm "Glad" as the smaller book is easier to store in my bed headboard - reference area.........."Sad" as he centuries were much more "Visible" on the larger edition.........I may order that one again..........but have used the "little guy" several times already!!
THANK YOU FOR THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Beryl Warner
