Excellent introduction to the middle ages, the Medieval World: an Illustrated Atlas by the National Geographic condenses into 11 chapters about 1000 years of history. It is readable and great way for adults to refresh their knowledge of a period that seems to get lost in history education in primary and secondary schools. The information span reflects the excellence of National Geographic publications as well as a contemporary attempt to go beyond typical Western European-centric looks at history. I particularly appreciated the clear explanations of the various tribal nations that conquered and re-conquered Rome and other parts of the Mediterranean. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Notable Lists
This comprehensive historical atlas concentrates on the Mediterranean world but also shows what happened across the globe between A.D. 400 and 1500--from the fall of Rome to the age of discovery. Sumptuously illustrated, it features period works of art, fascinating maps, quotes from medieval figures, close-ups of intriguing artifacts, and rich landscape photographs. For every century, a signature city is spotlighted to represent that era's developments, and time lines connect the many dramatic events that took place in these dark and exciting times.
