Dave Rear

A Less Boring History of the World (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Refreshes the parts other history books can't reach...

A bit ropy on the Renaissance?

In the dark about the Enlightenment?

Or, in fact, do you need a revision course on the entire history of the world and want to read a witty, irreverent, definitely not boring romp through everything that has ever happened on planet earth - from 15 billion years BC to the present day?

Good.

A Less Boring History of the World tells you everything you need to know from the Big Bang to Barack Obama, taking in the Byzantines, the Black Death, Bin Laden and the fall of bankers along the way, all boiled down to bite size chunks so that you can finally piece together all the different bits of history - and see how on earth we ended up in the mess we are today.

A Less Boring History refreshes your memory and broadens your mind. And, if that's not enough, it will also make you laugh. A lot.

Autorenporträt

Dave Rear is a writer and lecturer who has spent his life reading, writing, and talking about history. While he hasn't time-travelled yet, it would be a convenient way to make him vanish. He lives in Tokyo with his wife and two kids, who - by law - are required to read all his books. They also wish he could time-travel.
