Synopsis
"'Historical Atlas of the Medieval World' gives an overview of world history for 600 AD - 1492 AD. The atlas divides the world into five areas: Americas; Europe; Middle East; Africa; and East & South Asia. The first series of maps and time lines gives an overview of the major events in all of these five areas at once as well as other pertinent details. Then the atlas focuses on each of the five major areas, in turn, and covers their major events in more detail. At the back, there is a A-Z guide to the people, places, and events that were mentioned in the text." [Amazon]
