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

4.0

This book is intended for young readers but I found it an enjoyable read. It is written in a friendly, breezy way that makes it easy to keep reading while giving factual information. Was surprised that no mention was made of the bubonic plague that decimated the world. The author is from Europe so much of North & South American history is skimmed over.
Felt the book was worth the time to read as a reminder of all the achievements of mankind as well as the cruelty mankind has endured.
Especially with the rise of ISIS it seems a reminder of how evil arises in the world & needs to be dealt with. Peace never lasts long.
