Summary: good summary
Comment: Eyewitness to the 20th century is of typical National Geographic high quality. Each decade consists of one chapter. Each chapter egins with a summary of the decade.Each year is given a two page summary that highlights many of the trends and events of the year. At the bottom of the page there is a timeline that lists specific dates of important events that has happened during the year. In general, this book is a good summary of the past century and the major events.
Rating: 4
Summary: A must for workplace trivia
Comment: This book is loaded with all things I should have already known, or better yet, learned in high school and promptly forgot. It is well laid out with a summary of the decade, then quick yearly details in easy-to-read and interesting short paragraphs. It's the essential handbook for all of us who want a foundation in history, but don't care enough to buy an entire book on every subject or person of interest.
Rating: 5
Summary: An excellent overview!
Comment: Out of all the books outlining the events that shaped the twentieth century, I found this to be the most enjoyable and informative. Set up in an accessible, easy to read format, it details the major historical events of the past century, providing entertainment and education along the way.
