Full Description

VOYAGES IN WORLD HISTORY, BRIEF EDITION, masterfully uses the theme of movement-the journeys of peoples, ideas, and goods-to help readers make sense of the overwhelming range of people, places, and events throughout history. Each chapter begins with, and is framed around, the story of a person who traveled within the time period and region under discussion. Readers will enjoy the stories and will also learn to critically evaluate the traveler's observations and attitudes. A primary source feature called "Movement of Ideas" helps readers to analyze original sources by providing multiple explanations of significant ideas throughout history.
