A comprehensive, yet completely readable and compelling, Story of Civilization. This complete eleven volume set traces the history of the world from the settlements in Asia, the Middle East and North Africa through Roman and Christian eras and then into significant epochs of Western Europe. Originally begun during the 1920s, this set was the third revised edition. A good introduction to the basic understanding of world civilization.
