From the publisher
From the Dawn of Civilization to the Modern Era; Historical Maps On File is the volume librarians requested most when asked for suggestions about additions to our popular Maps On File collection. This revised edition has been expanded to feature more than 400 maps - 100 new to this edition - in a two-volume format. Updated maps reflect the latest changes on the world stage, including the breakup of the Soviet Union, the Persian Gulf War, the fall of Communist states, and the Balkan conflicts. Other topics in the revised edition of Historical Maps On File include: Major wars and battles; Trading routes; The Crusades; Revolutions; Voyages of discovery; Demographics; Religion. Approximately one-third of the collection is devoted to American history, covering such topics as Native American populations prior to European collaboration, ratification of the Constitution, slavery and presidential elections.

-
Near Fine (NrFine or NF)Almost perfect, but not quite fine. Any defect outside of shelf-wear should be noted.
-
Very Good (VG)A used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Very good items should not have writing or highlighting.

-
FairIt is best to assume that a “fair” book is in rough shape but still readable.
