Publishers Description: "Conventional chronologies of world history concentrate on the reigns of Kings and Queens, the deaths of iconic figures and the years of major discoveries. But there are other more interesting stories to tell, stories that dont usually get into the history books but which can nevertheless bring the past vividly and excitingly to life. By turns bizarre, surprising, trivial and enlightening, History Without the Boring Bits offers rich pickings for the browser, and entertainment and inspiration aplenty."
