ReviewsThe author strikes a very good balance between being comprehensive without drowning students in detail. All of the chapters are strong, which is a big reason that I use the book., The author strikes a very good balance between being comprehensive without drowning students in detail. ... All of the chapters are strong, which is a big reason that I use the book., I have been teaching Western Civilization for almost twenty years and have, at one time or another, assigned many of Spielvogel's competitors. But once I adopted Spielvogel I have consistently used it and recommended to my adjuncts that they do the same. It is the best Western Civ. text on the market.
