The Mental Floss History of the World : An Irreverent Romp Through Civilization's Best Bits

"An admirable job of covering 60,000 years of human history in one volume. . . . fascinating stories, hilarious oddities, and plenty of fun." —School Library Journal

The Mental Floss History of the World is an amazingly entertaining joyride through sixty millennia of human civilization. As audacious as it is edifying, here is a hilarious and irreverent—yet always historically accurate—overview of the ascent (or descent) of humankind, courtesy of the same rebel geniuses who brought you Mental Floss Presents Condensed Knowledge and Mental Floss Presents Forbidden Knowledge. The Mental Floss History of the World is proof positive that just because something's true doesn't mean it's boring.

"Filled with amusing tidbits and accurate and compelling information." —Publishers Weekly
