Collegiate History Text

This was a required text for my Western Civilization courses at Marquette University. Unlike most History texts, this book has a great index and glossary. The writing is easy to read and understand, and the important terms are easy to find when embedded in text. This is one of the better History textbooks I have used throughout my education.
