Ancient India

(4) YA World History series. India describes the cultural evolution and contributions of ancient India to the modern world. Inquisition examines the social and political climate that led to religious persecution in the Middle Ages. The straightforward writing, though accessible, is bland, and the two-column layout results in a sterile, textbooklike appearance. Maps, artwork reproductions, and illustrations add interest; some primary source material sidebars provide more historical context. Reading list, timeline, websites. Ind. Review covers these World History titles: Ancient India and The Inquisition.
