The Usborne Internet-Linked Encyclopedia of World History

by Jane Bingham, Fiona Chandler, and 11 others

Covers world history from the beginning of the universe to 2000, and provides information about major civilizations, rulers and other historical figures, important events, scientific and technical advances, and other details.

The book has great maps, great graphics, and well-written text. The sections are complete and it does a decent job of connecting the dots from one civilization to the next. There is a timeline on the bottom of every page for the spatial learner to see where they are within the context of time. The pages are illustrated nicely and appropriately. Items are labeled for the compulsive reader. The index is comprehensive.
