Beautiful book, nicely made.My got it for my kid and he loved it!

What a great book of maps. It has Everything unit through all the ages. I absolutely love it.,definitely recommend this book.

I have a collection of historical atlases and this is the best one I've ever seen. The maps are clear, detailed and the accompanying information brings each map to life. It can be used as a great reference book.Just open it up to any page and you will learn a lot. It is not eurocentric, and gives an excellent perspective on the history of every geographic region and of humankind.This is not a small volume but a truly comprehensive historical atlas. And at least in the United States, Amazon is selling it at a significant discount. Almost a steal!!

Amazing book but eye do have two very small complaints. First During the "Early Modern Period" 1450-1750 No Mention of Louis XIV France or Safavid Persia is truly unfortunate. Second The "Information Era" Is Sorely Missing The GWOT & The Entire Bush Administration Alongside The Obama Admin As Well Eye Do Appreciate The Covid Year Mention

Very nice book but very heavy. More words and less maps than expected.

Great! Best book with maps in all my life!

Amazing maps!
