I still find it to be an excellent history of Europe--it is thoroughBy A Long Walk in the WoodsThis was the textbook I used in high school as an AP European history student; so I admit my bias. However; I still find it to be an excellent history of Europe--it is thorough; engagingly written; and has a plethora of text and image resources within its pages.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

AP Euro bookBy LindaWe HAD to buy this for a AP Euro class. I would not recommend it. Some of the information is very hard to sift through and understand. The authors are all ivy league educated and took some interesting material and bored us all. There has got to be other textbooks out there that bring history to life.
