Add to basketSTATED FIRST PRINTING - A concise and powerful book by the Pulitzer Prize-winning historians Will and Ariel Durant. Running just over 100 pages, the book serves as a brilliant distillation of their monumental 11-volume masterpiece, The Story of Civilization, which took them more than four decades to research and write.
After completing their massive survey of 5,000 years of human history, the Durants stepped back to answer a fundamental question: What does it all mean? They organized their conclusions into 13 short, essay-like chapters, examining human history through various lenses to find recurring patterns, cycles, and realities.
