World History Teacher
Tremendous resource. I wish I had this resource ten years ago. Historical outline maps are provided that cover all of World History. Highly recommend.
Inaccurate, childish and came with the wrong CD ROM
I was very disappointed in this book of hisotrical maps and sent them back immediately. To add insult to injury, the attached CD was of American, rather than World History maps. Firstly the maps are extremely simplified and appear hand drawn. Secondly in two minutes I saw several significant inaccuracies and even spelling mistakes ("territory seded to France"). For example it has completely messed up the borders of Germany and Poland on the Cold War map. As a high school teacher, I would be embarassed to give most of those maps to my students. This is only appropriate for elementary or perhaps middle school students, but even they deserve something better.
If you want geography, a far better choice is Geography Coloring Book (3rd Edition) by Wynn Kapit. It has very accurate maps and up to date information. Unfortunately it has only one or two historical maps.
CD-ROM is not for World History
This book comes with a bonus CD-ROM...however, mine was for the Blackline maps of American History, not World History. As I really need the CD-ROM more than the book, it is completely unhelpful and not what I expected. I am not sure if it was a packaging mistake or if they are all this way, but I will be returning the product.
A Homeschooler's Geography Time-Saver!
Because I went through public school, my knowledge of geography is abysmal. So, when I started homeschooling, I wanted my children to know geography much better than I did. But I'm just too busy to find maps, especially ancient ones, on the internet. Thank goodness Terri Johnson did it for me! Her maps are detailed without being overwhelming, and they're easy to label. There's plenty of white space on the maps, which is great for young children who can't write small. We will be using these maps all the way through to high school graduation--we'll never need another map resource!
Fantastic Blackline Maps
It took me a while before I splurged on the Blackline Maps of World History. Instead I spent WAY to much time trying to find the right map somewhere in internet-land. After much frustration, wasted time, and difficult to read maps, I finally bought this. All I can saw is WOW! These maps are fantastic, and believe me I've seen enough bad ones to know. They are clear and very pleasing to the eye and the best part is that they come in two forms: a blank map and a filled in map key. This is very important because sometimes it can be very tricky filling in maps from ancient times, especially depending on what atlas you are using. Terri Johnson has made it so easy for us all. I love these maps and my children think they are pretty good too.
