When on Earth?: History as You've Never Seen It Before! (DK Where on Earth? Atlases)

What a great book, so full of info. Great illustrations and engaging text. It will show you the history of the world in a great format.

This book is all it says it is. Got this for my daughter who loves geography and history. It ended up being interesting to me and my husband too. It’s really good quality, has gorgeous imagery and great educational material.

Love these books - check out where on earth also

I bought this book after carefully researching the plethora of options on Amazon so I knew it would be incredible. It certainly lived up to its expectations. And whenever I leave it out on a coffee table anywhere in the house, it is sure to be picked up by any of our guests.

A fine children's book. Has some good information.

This book makes history fun and easy (OK, easier) to understand the context of different events, different places and different dates. The concept of a map with various bits of information with different dates but related by subject is astonishingly simple. The entire book consists of these maps covering various subjects of civilization around the world. It covers Asian and African history as much as the usual European history. This book is a keeper to read again & again, plus its a fun book you can read for 15 min. at a time and come back to it again later. Maps/chapters are in logical order of civilization, but you can skip around with no loss of interest or comprehension. I'm really glad I got this fun read.

This is great for visual learners! I could never get my head around history but I may actually learn with the kids this year. It has stayed on the counter since we got it and at least someone stares at it every day. The pictures are interesting and it has fun facts in the margins. This could even be a good coffee table book! If you have a kid who is a visual learner, this would be a great history text!

This is not your typical atlas! My whole family loves this book (as well as DK's "Where on Earth?" book). There is such a wide range of information offered in such a fun way. Both books offer very unique and entertaining charts, graphs, and maps. I bought these books for my elementary age son, and was pleased that even my husband and I enjoy them too.
