Taditions & Encounters a Brief Global History

This book was reasonably priced & arrived in the condition exactly as described. Looking to re sell it as soon as my daughter is done with classes.

Not bad

This is probably the most useful history book I've ever read. It was interesting and easy to comprehend. The other students with whom I spoke agree that as far as history books go, this is one of the best. My only complaint is that, in my personal opinion, there is a lack of maps. Not exactly a huge deal, but sometimes maps make it easier to picture things in the past.
