Intended for Western Civilization surveys or courses on Early or Modern Europe, they incorporate the most significant historical scholarship of the past fifty years. Conventional political history is presented in three forms: in the narrative wherever appropriate, in boxed inserts, and in the chronologies which open each chapter. Both authors frequently relate past history to present events and problems. The second volume contains extensive coverage of the United States. Both volumes contain maps, photos, and annotated bibliographies broken out in historical time periods and arranged topically within the periods.
