This text is well-illustrated with full-color and black & white photographs, colorful maps, black and white drawings, text boxes, and cooler coordinated timelines for visual organization of eras. From a secular publisher, the dating begins 6.5 million years ago and concludes in 2018. It also includes a summarized timeline of North American in text form–which outlines key US and Canadian history dates. The text is concise and clearly explained. While handled through age-appropriate descriptions, tough historical topics are covered–for example the practice of Roman children being “put outside” to die at 8 days of age if rejected by fathers, the slave trade, the impact of the explorers on the New World, and the holocaust. 319 pgs, hc. ~Deanne
