Western Civilization Mapping Workbook

The geography and the people of the world are constantly changing. In this global era, a geographic perspective is more important than ever. Understanding the world of the past and the present requires a basic understanding of the physical components of the Earth. The exercises in this workbook explain the relationships between human activity and the physical and topographic regions of the Earth. The workbook is designed to explain the correlations between historical events and geography through assignments that involve both reading and interpreting maps. Any systematic approach to the history of western civilization demands a global, historical and geographic perspective. With that in mind, the twenty-five exercises in this workbook provide an essential context of western civilization.
