The Western Heritage[1] is an American history textbook used for the study of Western civilization and European history. It was published in 1979,[2] and has gone through ten editions. It was written by Donald Kagan, Steven Ozment, and Frank M. Turner. It soon became a "standard survey text"[3] and is published in two volumes.

Considered conservative and old-fashioned when it was published,[4] reviewers chided it for ignoring the Byzantines and Ottomans as well as giving short shrift to Russia and Poland.[4][5] Others indicated lack of attention to the role of the Islamic states[4] and ignorance of Islamic sources.[6] It "could be plausibly described as consistently following something close to a biblical-literalist line" on the history of Ancient Israel.[7]
