This product advertises 72-hour protection. More than 95% of the time it doesn't even last 24 hours and that is on clean, dry skin and rubbed in well. I'm so disappointed. : This was a Christmas gift last year for a friend. He really enjoys history so this book was many hours of pleasure.

Carlos Augusto Lemke:
Este livro não é uma mera coleção de mapas, mas tem também uma coleção de mapas. É uma ferramenta que eu considero quase fundamental para qualquer um que goste de história, mostrando os lugares e, nesses lugares, os eventos que ocorreram. Cidades que foram fundadas, populações que migraram, produtos e rotas comerciais e, é claro, guerras e movimentações de militares.
Cada mapa tem, é claro, um recorte ou um enfoque específico, tanto ditado pelo tempo histórico quanto pelo limite de informações que é possível colocar em uma página, então pode ser que certos recortes de certos eventos não contemplem todos os interesses, mas considero que os autores selecionaram bem aquilo que queriam retratar.
E os mapas em si são lindos, todos eles retratam o relevo da região que está na página, corpos de água e outros acidentes geográficos sempre aparecem, o que ajuda a visualizar e informar os eventos. Há um uso abundante de cores, mas não sem critério: cada cor corresponde a um período de alguns anos, a subdivisão temporal dos mapas, então é possível rapidamente separar a linha do tempo de cada mapa simplesmente olhando para a cor. Isso...

Morgan Lowe: I bought this for my English neighbor. He is very interested in world history and really enjoyed this book and the laser etched map of England I got him for his birthday.
