[LM_NET] TAR: History Collection

[MICHELLE HOLGUIN <mich3421@YAHOO.COM>]

Hello,
I am sending this request for a colleague. Thanks in advance for any and all help.
 
To help students gets excited about world history, I am looking for an 
anthology/collection of well-written essays dealing with various events in world 
history.  Not a dictionary or encyclopedia format.   Something like Howard Zinn’s 
People’s History of the United States would also be good because it is so readable, 
or Coming Apart, but for world history, not US.
