Book Reviews of The Discoverers: Volumes I and II Deluxe Illustrated Set with Slipcase
Book Review: So comprehensive it's sickening
Summary: 4 Stars
An unbelievable portrait of the history of man. From ancient Babylonians and the early Roman Empire to present day, Boorstin shows us how men and women through the Ages have expanded their minds and instruments, reaching past the sceptics and those who would keep the status quo. Boorstin 's work is thorough and blended well. I never thought a book of this nature would capture my attention so completely.
