Synopsis

AMAZON REVIEW: Paul T Horgan 5.0 out of 5 stars Does exactly what it says... 27 August 2013 Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase This book is a must for those who really want to know everything that went on in 1986 from a contemporaneous view, but do not want to sift through old newspaper cuttings. The design quality has improved from the design apparently adopted in the 1960s and marks Britannica getting away from trying to appear modernistic. Half of the book is a Gazetteer of nations of the world. Pears Cyclopaedia does something similar but in a different structure. An ideal gift for anyone born in 1986 to show them then world they were born in to at a point when they were far too young to appreciate what was going on. This will help them contextualise their earliest experiences.
