5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, November 26, 2001
This review is from: A History of the World (Hardcover)
This was my favorite book of all time. I will re-read it soon. There are no endless barage of dates or wars. THIS IS THE STORY OF THE SURVIVAL OF THE HUMAN RACE. It often is not a pretty picture, and Thomas tells it like it is, often sad and shocking, BUT ALWAYS ENTERTAINING AND ENDLESSLY FASCINATING.
History is amazing. This is what I learned. Shame on the scholastic powers that be, that neglect this kind of honesty! Want to know why we are here? How we got here? The fate of common man? The ascent of men and civilization? The tragedies? The bizarre twists of history?
THIS BOOK HAS IT ALL.
