" In an ever-changing world an appreciation of the past is necessary to an understanding of today's events. This book allows easy reference to the major events, great personalities, important civilizations and vital dates in the history of the world."
So says the front flap of this book's dust jacket and I would have to agree. It is in very good condition both inside and out, with no creases, tears, annotations or other markings. 
The book is arranged alphabetically and functions like a traditional dictionary. This allows readers to quickly locate and understand historical concepts. This format makes a handy resource for anyone seeking a brief, informative entry on a wide range of historical topics.
Please note that this is a compact book measuring 18.5 cm x 11 cm x 3 cm  and weighing approximately 380 g.
