History

The internationally bestselling guide to the extraordinary human story, for the curious of all ages The World has existed for over 4 billion years, but humanity arrived much more recently. Here E. H. Gombrich brings to life the full story of human experience on Earth. He paints a colourful picture of remarkable people and events, from Confucius to Catherine the Great, from the invention of art to the destruction of the Berlin Wall. This is a book dominated not by dates and facts, but by the sweep of mankind's experience across the centuries. It is both a guide to humanity's achievements and an acute witness to its frailties. The product of a generous and humane sensibility, this is a timeless account of our shared history. Little Histories - Inspiring Guides for Curious Minds
