A Little History of the World by E.H. Gombrich

5.0

While reviews commenting that this is a Euro-centric history are correct, it's still an excellent primer for its intended audience, and for older readers whose school lessons in history omitted crucial periods. There are plenty of other works that can be read subsequently, to give a wider and deeper view - one book cannot over everything.

Further, the approach taken by this book - its tone, and content - make it an easy and engaging read.
