The Pocket Guide to World History is a handy reference tool for time travellers on a journey to the distant past or a quick trip through the last few years. Jet setting tourists and arm chair navigators will find at their fingertips the answers to questions about the advance of politics, philosophy, religion, science, art, literature and music.

Each entry has been carefully crafted to capture the most important facts in the fewest words. Hyperlinks embedded in the text and the word/date search features encourage the reader to meander through the book to fill in the details. The latest edition contains almost 10,000 entries and over 20,000 dates, yet the entire book takes a minimum amount of memory in eBook form.

The book is available in .kml format for the hiebook, .lit format for MS Reader, and as a C-Pen Application. Please tell us which format you would like to see next.
