Category Description for Map Trek (Knowledge Quest Blackline Maps of World History):

These collections provide complete sets of outline maps for different periods in history. The World History sets contain maps for the following four time periods: the Ancients, Middle Ages, Dawning of the New World, and Modern World. There are between 16 and 27 for each period. For example, maps in the Ancients period include a map of early civilizations, ancient Egypt, India, the Assyrian empire, China's Shang kingdom, early Greece, ancient Africa, the Persian empire, the conquests of Alexander the Great, the republic of Rome, and many more). The maps have cities, countries, and bodies of water labeled (although on some these may be blank with instructions for students to label them). The set also includes discussion questions for each map. These consist of 1 -5 points for each map and may include looking at rivers, figuring distance, tracing routes, labeling various places, reading the map keys, drawing a compass rose, using an atlas or globe to find additional places, drawing in physical features, and coloring the maps according to directions. You can use these maps on their own, or to supplement your study of each time period. For World History, you can either buy the complete set, with a hardcover book of all the maps and the CD-ROM, or the complete set on CD-ROM only. Maps on CD are in PDF format and requires Adobe Reader (a free download). - Melissa

Easy resource, efficient, for making our own maps, coordinates with history. I have not yet received it but I am under the impression that it will give US maps as well.

I am looking for the ability to print out maps to use for a variety of geopolitical studies related to military operations, political disputes, type of governments, established religions, etc.

Excellent book and cd

Good maps is not found in Textbooks. This seems to be the answer to learn and understand History and Geography very well. To remember places as well as physical features, students must mark them on blank maps.
Kalavalli N on Jan 16, 2019
We needed it for school. We purchased it from Rainbow resource because we were able to get it for a better price than from other places

Comprehensive
Kirsti S on Aug 26, 2016
I love the comprehensive nature of this curriculum. I love that I can print the maps for use in our homeschool, but also have a solid text to refer to. The decision maker was the positive reviews.
Karen M on Aug 23, 2016
It has it all, world and U.S. and a hardcover book. It's a good deal.
Rebecca H on Jul 21, 2016
Corresponds well with Story of the World, which we use as a supplement to Classical Conversations. We found the SOTW activity book to be a bit too much, but like the map work so we're giving this a try this year.

I don't have a cd player for the pdfs. Can I download them from the publisher?
A shopper on Jun 9, 2020
BEST ANSWER: We don't currently carry them in a download version but you can check with the publisher. Its publisher, Knowledge Quest, is now a part of New Leaf Publishing.
Will this work with Mac or just PC?
A shopper on Jun 29, 2019
BEST ANSWER: CD-ROM is Mac and PC compatible. The computer will need adobe reader to use (free online download)
Are all the maps printed in book? How big is the book?
A shopper on Apr 27, 2019
BEST ANSWER: I do believe all the maps are in the book. At least, so far we have found all the maps used with the curriculum Heart of Dakota in the book. The book is about 12 inch by 9 inch and has 288 pages. The maps are outstanding, high quality printing, full color on glossy paper. We print out the student pages using the CD Rom that comes with the book. Hope this has helped!
Can I use this on the iMac?
A shopper on Jul 12, 2016
BEST ANSWER: I used it on my iMac and it worked with no problems.
does this include the US maps?
Susan L on Apr 20, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Yes, the CD-ROM packaged with the hardcover book includes all the maps from the US CD-ROM.
Does this include the US maps?
A shopper on Apr 20, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Yes, maps of the U.S. are included. There is a current map of the entire country plus one of each individual state with it's capital, major cities, bodies of water, mountain ranges, etc. labled. There are also quite a number of historical maps of the U.S., a disproportionate number in fact, because after all the publisher is American. I would have liked to have seen more maps covering other parts of the world in the modern section, but overall it is excellent product that I am very pleased with and would recommend.

One of the best homeschool books
I recommend this book with CD Rom to any Homeschool family. It was worth it to buy the complete volume and it saves a lot of time and money to have the full color Teacher's key maps in the book. Pretty much all the maps you will ever need to teach History!

Delightful and Engaging Reference
Within five minutes of opening my delivery, my oldest had already settled in with the Map Trek book, a stack of tracing paper, and a pencil. He is only five, but found it easy to read and understand the maps he selected; other maps in this atlas are more complicated, of course, but he was happy to find ones he could understand. After tracing the maps, he ran into the next room to identify what he had found. I share this story as an example of how useful this resource really is because each map has a thesis, if that makes sense. We're going to use this program in conjunction with RC History, and I can hardly wait.
