Summary: A bit too much info for Intro to Western Civ, sadly
Comment: I am not joking. I wish it were realistic to use this textbook in an intro to western civ class for students with no previous knowledge, but it's too complicated. It's also hard to lecture with it as it jumps around between national histories (keep having to say, "when last we left English history...". I would like to use a text like this one but am convinced that it is simply too much for our average students.

Summary: J. Spielvogel's Western Civ from 1500 (3rd edition)
Comment: I'm a teacher and educated general reader who ordered this book after learning of Spielvogel's popularity and brilliance as a professor at our mutual alma mater: Penn State. It arrived just today. Already, from reading the "intro to students," I've learned what the enigmatic B.C.E. means but that the author chooses to use B.C. (as in A.D.) The voice that wrote that introduction is the voice of the entire text. I am delighted with the heft of the book, the maps and illustrations, and the prospects ahead.
