The Comprehensive Reference Guide is an excellent source for students to aquire information on 233 countries from around the world. As a middle school social studies teacher it is one of the first books I encourage my students to research when we begin studying a new region. We have five in the class. Countries are listed in alphabetical order in a well organized table of contents. Each page is laid out in an easy to read format and contains general information on a specific country that includes a minature map, flag (it's black and white and I wish it was color), population, languages, type of goverment, geography, climate, economy, life-style, and a section on interesting facts. In the back are maps of the seven continents and fourteen blank maps that can be duplicated for tests. There is also a currency appendix that gives the country, the name of its' basic monetary unit and its equivalent. It also has an easy to read eighteen page index. This is a good book to have if you are teaching or just interested in finding out basic facts on different countries.
