HOW DID OUR WORLD GET TO WHERE WE ARE TODAY? By following the course of history from the earliest days of civilization to today, we can find the answers. In this series, each book covers a major geographical or political region of the world and tells not only its early history, but traces the intersecting ways that it has changed in response to world events. Using maps, artwork, photography, timelines, and artifacts, each book is a mini time-travel machine. History is what made us what we are today; this series is the “how to” guide to how the modern world came to be.
