At first glance, this appears to be nothing more than a history of comic books. While it certainly is that, it also adds a number of things that really sets it apart from other similar books. First, it includes people and events beyond America's borders. (Most comic history books I've read focus only on U.S. comic books.) It also includes an excellent index of comic creators, publishers, and an exhaustive list of titles (with publication dates, print runs and other noteworthy points of interest). There are also sections specifically on collecting and grading comics. Well-written, enlightening, and a little more refreshing than most comic histories.
