In 11th grade, this was the text for my A.P. European History class, and it is to this book (in concert with Mrs. Galvani's excellent teaching, of course) that at least partially owe my history major. I can still see the text on the pages and the little salmon-colored maps. Hooray for a good, solid foundation in European history!
