The sources it uses are pretty solid; the historical context is pretty helpfulBy ThiagoThe sources it uses are pretty solid; the historical context is pretty helpful. Wish it had more maps; usually have to use a different book altogether to get bearings straight on the locations they are referencing from that time period2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Lots of infoBy Aunty PatriciaThe book is small in size; weighs a lot and paperback. The stories are sometimes fun to read and sometimes confusing format. The stories are informative and helped me to understand what life was like and attitudes at the time frame of the story. I needed this book for college History before 1500 AD class. I think it is extremely expensive to purchase so I rented it.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Kindle Edition Missing TextBy APMI rented the Kindle edition of this book for a class and probably a third if not more of the "Primary Sources" we have been assigned are replaced with "Text not available due to copyright restriction". Furthermore; I can only open the book on my phone's kindle as it is apparently the only "compatible" device I own. This is extremely annoying as it is much easier highlighting via my laptop or cloud reader.
