    The Ultimate Star Wars Book - Please Help...

    About two years ago I rented a book from the library.

    The book was a full history book of the Star Wars Universe. I have been trying to find the book, but I can not...

    All I know is that the book covered EVERYTHING from the begining of "time" to the end of the Star Wars Universe (way after Luke has kids, etc...) It also covers all 6 movies so the book had to have been released after the release of Episode 3....

    Is anyone here an "nerd" who can help me find the book?

    Don't say: "Google It" I attempted to find it with google, but I could not...

    Thank you ahead of time...

    The book you rented wasn't Star Wars: The Ultimate Visual Guide, was it? I have that book here and it sure is packed with info. High resolution images and all!

    Have you lost it then!?
    Let me guess, your library rang you up the other day to ask where it is?

    Anyway, the moment I read the description I ran upstairs.
    Is it by any chance Star Wars Visual Guide or something along those lines?
    Thanks,
    Dan

    No it was not the Star Wars Visual Guide...

    >The book was about as thick as a dictionary (or a Harry Potter book). And it was more text than images...

    >I believe it began by talking about the super old race that created the first lightsabers. I think it ended after all the bio aliens from another galaxy (far far way...) where defeated.

    >In the begining of the book it had a time line and a galactic map.

    And no I did not lose it... I just want to rent it again for future reference... But I can't find it! Please Help!

    Hmm. I wouldn't be able to think of anything else other than the visual guides and the actual Star Wars Encyclopedia book.

    Yea and that is why I am f***ed... It seems that this "super book" that I read does not exist...

    (There has to be a super nerd out there who knows this book... Where are you super nerd!)

    Have you checked Wikipedia as well? The book might be listed there...

    yea, use wikipedia. It is always useful. (and to big if you are looking for one small thing <- use your browser search function: 'Ctrl + F')

    Was it 'A Guide to the Star Wars Universe'? Or 'The Complete Visual Dictionary of Star Wars'?
    My Website: mitch.exofire.net (currenly not really working on it ;))

    I THINK I FOUND IT!

    "The New Essential Chronology (2005) by Daniel Wallace"

    I will rent it at the library and see if that is the one!

    Thank You! (And stupid me for not thinking to use Wikipedia!)
