Original Laminated Hardcovers. Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. 2004. Complete 6 volume set. "The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Daily Life offers an unprecedented look at human history's living heart: the billions of anonymous man and women too often forgotten by historical studies, but without whose lives human history would be… meaningless. Providing unparalleled breadth and depth, this six-volume set is organized both thematically and chronologically. Panoramic overview articles show the full range and interconnections of everyday life throughout history. General topics are then broken into component parts, each of which is explored in detailed essays. The chronological and thematic organizations, aided by concept compasses that graphically show interconnections and act as visual navigational cues, reflect how students really learn. All regions of the world are covered at various points in their histories. Volume 1 examines the ancient world, from the beginnings of civilization in 3,500 B.C.E. through the Roman Empire in 400 C.E. Volume 2 covers from 400 to 1400 C.E. Volume 3 explores the 15th and 16th centuries. Volume 4 looks at the 17th and 18th centuries. Volume 5 examines the 19th century" Excellent condition with no inscriptions. PLEASE NOTE: Heavy set so extra will be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.
