Book excerpt: Join the editors of TIME in a fast-paced journey through the adventures of man on Planet Earth in this richly illustrated volume, which explores history's most important turning points. Here are the great religions: Buddhism, Christianity and Islam. Here are the great empires, from the vanished civilization of the Minoans on Crete to the glories of Classical Greece and Rome to the mysterious collapse of the Maya culture in Mexico. Here are the visionary scientists who altered our view of nature's laws: Newton and Darwin, Copernicus and Einstein. Here are the great conquerors,including Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan and Napoleon. And here are the great clashes between cultures, as Christian knights besiege Muslim citadels in the Crusades, a handful of Spanish conquistadors topple the empires of the Aztecs and Incas, and Japan attacks the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor. The book is arranged chronologically, rapidly accelerating in pace as it reports the development of the technologies that define the modern world, from the coming of the railroad and the telegraph to the advent of photography, the cinema and television and culminating in the invention of the transistor and the boot-up of the World Wide Web. And it offers fresh perspectives on cultures too often overlooked, from the Golden Age of Islam to the voyages of Viking mariners to China's renascence under the Ming dynasty. Presented in a special oversized format, this beautifully illustrated volume also offers a sweeping panorama of man's greatest artistic achievements, from the cave paintings of Lascaux to marvelous medieval maps and on to the great paintings and sculptures of the Renaissance. As an illuminating guide to mankind's triumphs and sorrows, and as a gallery of human culture, science, art and architecture, it offers a dazzling and provocative encounter with the great turning points of history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Events in Modern History If read through, it cannot fail to be useful. Its facts, and the great historical personages it exhibits will be remembered. They cannot be forgotten. In order the better to insure the recollection of incidents and characters presented in this volume, the author has embellished it profusely with engravings. These graphic helps to the memory exert much influence in extending and popularizing the knowledge of history. They make the reader familiar with the subject, at the same time that they afford pleasure to the cultivated eye, and serve to diffuse among all classes of readers a certain degree of knowledge and taste in the fine arts. The author is sensible to the high degree of indulgence with which his very humble efforts in the cause of national education have been regarded by his countrymen. The publishers' returns of copies sold afford a tolerably satisfactory proof that his works are very widely diffused among the people; and as this has been the case for many years, he has reason to believe that they are also approved. For this he is deeply grateful, and he will always endeavour to evince the sincerity of his gratitude by studiously aiming at real utility in whatever he may offer to the notice of the public.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Events in Modern History It has been very justly remarked, that to be really and extensively useful, a book must be entertaining. Those which lack this characteristic, however laudable may be their design, and however able, accurate, and minute their execution, cannot be generally useful, be cause the mass of readers will not read them through. They may buy them from a sense of duty, because they are said to be goool books, they may place them on a shelf and make a resolute attempt to read them occa sionally; but if the books are dry and repulsive, they are laid aside after the perusal of a few pages, and when repeated attempts to accomplish the heavy task have failed, the undertaking 1s given up in despair. The volume is spoken of with great respect, and permitted to enjoy a dignified repose on the upper shelf.
