Captures the spirit of every age
The Making of the West is a story of interactions — cross-cultural exchanges that span the globe, as well as the ongoing interactions between societies, cultures, governments, economies, religions, and ideas. To highlight these interactions and help students grasp the vital connections between political, social, and cultural events, The Making of the West: A Concise History presents a comprehensive picture of each historical era within a brief chronological narrative. The book also situates Europe within a truly global context, facilitating students’ understanding of the events that have shaped their own times. A full-color map and art program deepen students’ understanding of the narrative.
 "The Making of the West: A Concise History is an excellent textbook that challenges students by presenting an engaging examination of the history of western civilization. Balancing brevity and clarity, the text stimulates students with fascinating anecdotes, quotes, and artwork that bring history to life."
— Jason Coy, College of Charleston
