No this is not only a superb book-object, c is mostly a very beautiful book of history, I was looking for a book that follows a chronological sense and not by class people or historical period or thematic, and I am well hears with this item. Top relevant years in strict chronological order, just below very beautiful pictures of the reporting period, still below the card agrement text and beautiful illustrations, and finally at the bottom of the page and throughout the width, line with points that indicate important dates of the relevant historical period. All on glossy paper. A book that you have to have because it really denotes the most story books on the market, so that it is complementary of the others, in my opinion.
