The downloads on this page are PDFs, some in color, from Berkshire’s publications and media. One old favorite, still very useful, comes from our first independently published encyclopedia, the Berkshire Encyclopedia of World History: “How to Spell It and How to Say It: 100 Important People, Places, and Terms in World History.” And we love the coloring maps!
