An entire world of the past, captured at the moment the modern age emerged. History comes vividly to life. Volume XIV of The Book of History belongs to a landmark multi volume history collection that set out to present a definitive history of all nations in accessible, richly illustrated form. First issued in the early twentieth century, this illustrated world history volume blends narrative, analysis and image, drawing on the authority of Viscount Bryce, Holland Thompson and Professor W. M. Flinders Petrie. Together their contributions form a comprehensive world history reference charting global civilizations and empires, a global history from antiquity through the ancient to modern world. Ideal as a reference for history students and a rigorous yet readable homeschool world history resource, it couples concise scholarship with the visual power of the original series, renowned for its thousands of photographs, maps and drawings. As part of a vintage illustrated history set, this volume also speaks to readers interested in early 20th century history itself, preserving how leading scholars of that era understood the past. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, perfect for anyone who cherishes an antique world history book that can still be read, studied and enjoyed.
