About this book

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 travelers 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.
