More than 140 detailed maps tell the story of
pivotal episodes in world history, from the first human migrations out of Africa
to the space race.
Custom regional and global maps present the history
of the world in action, charting how events traced patterns on land and
ocean--patterns of exploration, discovery, or conquest that created empires,
colonies, or theaters of war. Thoughtful organization of information will help
you follow the story of civilizations through ancient, medieval, and modern
times.
But not every page is full of maps. At key points
inHistory Map by Map, broad, sweeping introductions provide a chance to step
back and look at entire periods, such as World War II, or to explore
overarching themes, such as the Industrial Revolution. Picture spreads,
meanwhile, focus on epoch-defining moments or developments, such as fascism and
communism, and the invention of printing.
