it was amazing

A great book, packed with information from historical events and politics all around the world, it starts with the societies before and post-class civilization. You will read mainly about the great powers of the world from Europe to Russia, Britain, the US and their empires and colonies around the globe. It speaks of the middle east in brief, basically summarized in few pages, but gives you the outline. It elaborates about the struggle of communism and capitalism and it's ripple effect throughout the world. It's all told in a story-like manner so I never got bored reading it, I definitely recommend it, it's a great introductory book and a rich shelf reference book, I'll definitely be going back to it every now and then for a memory refresh. In my opinion this should be taught in schools, since it tells history in an objective way, with no biases to any political or religion sects. It's one of those books that gives a great sense of satisfaction when you finish reading it.
