A 130-volume historical series. Includes a comprehensive index and a separate volume, "The World History of Travel." While somewhat specialized, it's easy to read with abundant photos and illustrations. Ideal as a stepping stone to specialized fields. - Title: Weekly Asahi Encyclopedia: World History - Volumes: Complete 130 volumes, boxed set, with comprehensive index - Separate volume: The World History of Travel - Publisher: Asahi Shimbun, 1988-1991 - Condition: Good, but old - The index has some yellowing, possibly due to a difference in paper quality. - Some tears on the box. Mostly unused, but there are original scratches and folds. It is old, and I haven't checked every single page, so please be aware of that.
