The Timechart History of Revolutions documents simultaneous conflicts through time, from 1190 BCE to the present day, displayed in a fully illustrated Timeline spanning five geographical regions: The Americas, Europe, Middle East & Asia, Africa, and Australia & Oceania. Following events vertically on the Timeline shows what was happening in different parts of the world at any one point in time, and, uniquely, illustrates the spread of revolution and rebellion from region to region. Fold-out flaps offer a close-up view of subjects mentioned on the Timeline, including Japanese Samurai warriors, weaponry, the role of the Church in revolution, propaganda, and terrorism. A world map locates all the major revolutions and civil wars through history, and more than 20 revolutions are broken out into detailed and fact-driven spreads. For every conflict featured, there are maps and source materials, event highlighters and illustrations, and short biographies of key personalities.
