(4) 4-6 These books are written as travel guides to ancient civilizations ("Being a tourist in the Islamic Empires can also be hazardous"). This appealing approach encourages interest and provides cultural details in a unique manner (though it's not particularly well suited to doing research). Occasional inaccuracies are the result of oversimplification in an attempt to condense long spans of time and vast geography. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Time Travel Guides titles: Medieval Europe and The Islamic Empires.
