Little History of the World- E.H. Gombrich
Tax included.
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.
