Book excerpt: Based on the bestselling Cassell Atlas of World History, this volume takes a closer look at the history of the world between 1783 and the present day. Alongside 54 pages of colour maps and accompanying text are some 32 pages of encylopaedic entries, offering an A-Z guide to the people, places and events that shaped the modern world.
