Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I needed this for my World Civ class, was listed as a better price than college. Got to me in great condition and it’s awesome to have the online code too!

⭐From the product description: “NEW interactive learning resources develop history skills and assess comprehension of major themes and concepts.”Do not buy the kindle version of this book if you expect to use their online InQuizitive feature. They will not let you have access to it, even though you are buying the book from them, unless you pay an additional $20.00.

⭐It’smpot clear how it ties into the full text book for Worlds Together, Worlds Apart

⭐I am truly grateful for Amazon really! I love how they have almost every book for my college classes! But I was surprised that I even got an access code and free shipping for a very good price! Amazon keep up the good work!
