DMC Calgary: After a fascinating tour or Egypt and Greece I was craving more knowledge of the world's history but didn't know where to start and then found this book. It's big and heavy and full of information and stunning photos. Learning history from day one to now will be a pleasure and the book looks great on my coffee table too!

marcelo souto maior: The media could not be loaded.  Ótimo resumo de história geral, com imagens de alta qualidade. Requer um bom nível de inglês para a compreensão, mas não contém exageros no rebuscamento da linguagem. Perfeito para amadores, como eu.
Uma pequena ressalva quanto à entrega: a lombada do livro veio um pouco amassada e rasgada.

jmb: I had been wanting to purchase this book for awhile, but it was pretty costly. Prime Day alleviated that- at half off, I couldn't pass it up! It is a hefty volume- many thick pages, with lots of images and photos- yet easy to read. My husband (who is not a big reader) loves it, because he can sit down for 15 minutes and read and complete a section, similar to a magazine article. Not to say it's that simplistic, but it is not diving deeply into each historical event. It's giving the basics and then some incredibly interesting side tidbits with photos and sometimes timelines and drawings, which adds to the experience. It's not a literary history of civilization; it's something you could sit down with your pre-teen and read and discuss, and it would take up just enough time but not too much time. It would keep their interest, and they would learn something, without being bored, because it's colorful and glossy. It is a lovely book with a quality hard cover and thick pages. I'm really glad I finally purchased it. Highly recommend!

Symytry: The book is huge, and is true to the description. It is a massive book, quite comprehensive with overall history. There are plenty of pictures, and I haven’t come across a single one that looks low quality or is a duplicate image that I’ve seen in another book. I loved the timeline introduction of each chapter, giving a concise overview of each period within. Highly recommended if you love history, or want to use this as teaching material. If you have kids in a public school, or just think it’s important to teach them about history and want to give them more to learn (as they don’t teach them much of anything like this about human history these days) then I recommend this book!

Tim: Good book overall. Well laid out with lots of variety in the way the information is presented. Print rather small. A little too much emphasis on 20th Century. Could have used more on older history of the world.

Omega Guru 111: Did you ever want to know a little of everything... I love to have those fast fact tidbits to impress anyone but that's just me. "Oh, you want to bring up WW1... Did you know..."The illustrations are beautiful and the font is not too small like other history books of this size. Prepare a large space on your coffee table that people will open and act like they actually know what they are talking about. The majority of pages I've read so far are accurate and have a great overview of Ancient Rome and that is my fav. Learned a lot about various parts of history never taught in school.
