It’s a little bit hard to believe we took this many years to buy The Timechart History of the World. For several years, we kept a timeline hanging in our house, first a paper one around the top of the living room wall, then a cloth one that went around both walls of a long hallway. With a foot allowed for each hundred years, the timeline was 60 feet long in order to show all of history from Creation to the present. We added pieces to the timeline to show the people and events we studied. Those timelines were a wonderful way to show how events were related to each other in time, but the children always hated putting pieces up for some reason. Then, for the past year and a half, since we moved into a smaller house—and then again into another house with no place to hang the timeline—we have been without one altogether.

If I were heading for a deserted island to spend some time alone, this is a book I would take because there are so many little facts and details and dates and points of interest that I would never get tired of looking at it. I have used this book for reference more than any other on my shelf other than a dictionary. I wish it would self-update, because now I am missing the last 12 years from my Timechart. So much information, this is the perfect book for people who want to remember everything about history but just can't.
