Western Civilizations: Their History & Their Culture

A storytelling approach that engages students with features to help them master core content, think critically, and make connections.

The engaging narrative and carefully crafted, innovative pedagogical tools in Western Civilizations are based on the co-authors’ own teaching experiences. The text provides balanced coverage, places the West in a larger global context, and carefully integrates new research. In the eighteenth edition, the early modern period has been completely overhauled—and now includes a new chapter on the Atlantic World.
