World Book Timelines

Boatwright reviews World Book Timelines, an Internet resource available at www.worldbookonline.com. While this product covers a large number of topics, some of the actual timelines are sparse. For each event listed, additional information can be easily obtained. The amount of additional information varies from a photo, map, short biography, or brief descriptor to a bibliographic citation of few words. There is a helpful search function by topic or date range. World Book's photos and maps supplementing the events enhance the timeline.
