Edited by John Paxton and Edward W. Knappman

The first comprehensive chronology of world history ever published, S.H. Steinberg's Historical Tables remained a standard reference in libraries through six decades and twelve editions. Based on Historical Tables, The Wilson Calendar of World History is the thoroughly updated, modernized, and expanded successor to Steinberg's classic.

Edited by John Paxton, who took over the editorship of Historical Tables following the originator's death in 1969, The Wilson Calendar of World History is a concise chronology of human history worthy of the original reference. Highlighting 25,000 events throughout the world in a single, practical volume, and featuring expanded coverage of the arts and sciences as well as events in Latin America, Asia, and Africa, this excellent reference is a absolute must for every serious reference collection.
