I had hoped that the CD would be the same images that are in the book and thus be identifiable from the captions in the book. The CD images are not identified.

A fantastic whopper of a book, offering excellent value for money! This hardback captures some poignant moments in history - both good and not-so-joyous.
Extremely easy to understand with very good reference points - read this book from cover to cover, or choose a year and delight in the stunning and emotive photos and abundance of facts!
An invaluable resource for study, and highly addictive, I learnt something new on every page!

4.0 out of 5 stars An apt title that focuses on the theme of the book.
Reviewed in India on February 16, 2014
A visually inspiring book, indeed a treasure-trove of historical events of a bygone era. The commentary on each photo adds value and succeeds in creating a sense of history in readers like me who have not been fortunate enough to be students of history, An invaluable collection with lasting utility for readers young and old alike.

Purchased as a present for an older person. Reader loves dipping into this book frequently, leaving it accessible to do this.
