本書特色：
★本書涵蓋130幅特別繪製的大地圖，但並非單純只是「歷史地圖集」。
★帶您直接進入所有關鍵歷史事件的發生區域，例如人類第一次遷出非洲、工業革命、或是現代的太空競賽。
★著名歷史學家彼得‧斯諾(Peter Snow)為本書撰寫序言。
★運用世界地圖或區域地圖，在陸地與海洋標示出歷史事件主軸的演進經過─例如某一強大帝國的發展─讓讀者易於瞭解整個來龍去脈。
★然而，並非所有頁面都以地圖呈現，而是在關鍵的轉折點進行歷史事件的全面回顧，例如第二次世界大戰、工業革命，或是法西斯主義與共產主義的興起、以及印刷術的發展…等等。
Much more than a history atlas, this book drops you right in the heart of the action, as 130 detailed maps tell the story of pivotal episodes in world history, from the first human migrations out of Africa to the race for space. After the foreword written by renowned broadcaster and historian Peter Snow, purpose-made regional and global maps present the history of the world as it happened, charting how events traced patterns on land and ocean - patterns of exploration, discovery, or conquest that created powerful empires, fragile colonies, or terrifying theatres of war. An interplay of text and graphics leads you around the page so that you can follow the story of civilizations through ancient, medieval, and modern times.
But not every page is full of maps. At key points in History of the World Map by Map, broad, sweeping introductions provide a chance to step back and look at entire periods, such as World War 2, or to explore overarching themes, such as the Industrial Revolution. Picture spreads, meanwhile, focus on epoch-defining moments or developments, such as fascism and communism, and the invention of printing.
