Since I’ve been reading about medieval Russia recently, it was welcome to find a map showing the growth of the principality of Moscow (at the expense of Ryazan and Novgorod) and another map showing the details of the Polish-Lithuanian-Livonian territory. If there’s a flaw, it’s that the book can’t quite make up it’s mind if it’s an atlas or a travelog: too many pretty pictures at the expense of more maps. Some of the textual material that accompanies the maps is useful, however; basic histories, the genealogy of Chingis Khan, and a nice table of medieval exchange rates (how many Castilian marvedi to a Florentine florin). I also note that the New World is missing; the authors explain that the Olmecs, Toltecs, Maya, and so on are in the Ancient History atlas, not the Medieval one.
