I love the Anchor Atlas of World History, two small paperback volumes
which show a map on each lefthand page facing two columns of tiny, dense
text on the righthand page.

The text is *very* terse but covers a whole lot of topics. Since the
books are really a companion to more thoughtful works, this is
acceptable.
I've actually got two sets, since I snatched up the second copies
when I saw them on the library book sale table last summer. But even at
cover price they're cheap.
