The Times Illustrated World History

Mehr zum Buch

In 26 chapters, this book brings to life the history of mankind from human origins to the collapse of the Iron Curtain and beyond. There is also included a chronology of world history, a bibliography and a proper name and thematic index. This book covers the decline of communism in Eastern Europe and the Gulf War, and also indicates a range of revisions to earlier chapters. At a time when world history is increasingly a requirement of school and college syllabuses, this volume attempts to provide a primer and reference book for this purpose.
