5.0 out of 5 stars Eugen Weber, December 20, 2005
By 
This review is from: The Western Tradition, Vol. 2: From the Renaissance to the Present (Paperback)
If you are interested, Eugen Weber has recorded 15 hours of lectures on the Western Tradition on the following site
learner.org in the social studies category. He is fascinating to listen to and I really suggest having a look.

4.0 out of 5 stars Insight Into History, April 3, 2000
By 
M. Ray (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Western Tradition, Vol. 2: From the Renaissance to the Present (Paperback)
This book is a list of primary sources on the major events of European History from the Renaissance to the present. Weber does a good job of presenting balanced viewpoints (except maybe in the case of evolution, where he's definitely pro) The works are a bit dry, but that's not his fault. Plus, he gives a quick summary of each author before presenting his work. Perfect for AP classes (as practice for DBQs)

This review is from: The Western Tradition, Vol. 2: From the Renaissance to the Present (Paperback)
I find Professor Weber's work to include the raw, source material of our collective western education. Read the original work and draw conclusions for yourself. This is instruction in its purest form.
