will enable any student to manage a vast amount of historical
information.

chapter focuses on a major theme and explains it with a variety of
diagrams, charts, and maps. Each chapter also contains detailed
questions that allow students to assess how well they've mastered
various concepts. Not only are the right answers to these self-study
questions included, but also detailed explanations as to why the wrong
answers are wrong.

badly organized "official" text, each volume in the Homework Helpers
Series is just what students need to boost their confidence and given
them the tools they need to succeed in the most challenging classes or
