A lively and engaging narrative history showing the common threads in the cultures that gave birth to our own. This is the first volume in a bold series that tells the stories of all peoples, connecting historical events from Europe to the Middle East to the far coast of China, while still giving weight to the characteristics of each country. Susan Wise Bauer provides both sweeping scope and vivid attention to the individual lives that give flesh to abstract assertions about human history. Dozens of maps provide a clear geography of great events, while timelines give the reader an ongoing sense of the passage of years and cultural interconnection. This old-fashioned narrative history employs the methods of “history from beneath”—literature, epic traditions, private letters and accounts—to connect kings and leaders with the lives of those they ruled. The result is an engrossing tapestry of human behavior from which we may draw conclusions about the direction of world events and the causes behind them.

Extending from the dawn of Creation to the twenty-first century, Ashavid by author Eric Dryden, presents both an iconoclastic religious manifesto and an inspired out-of-the-box scholarly narrative. Dryden focuses on the ancient race of Nordic Indo-Europeans, the Prophet Zarathustra's divine revelation, and the corruptions of both. Ashavid discusses: The crucial role of Spitama Zarathustra of the Second Millennium BCE-the first to proclaim the one Creator God and to reveal the spiritual and ethical path leading to both the good earthly life and eternal life. Ancient West Asia's ethnic and cultural transformations including the multiple corruptions of Zarathustra's Ashavid doctrine. The Indo-Europeans' gradual genetic and cultural adulterations and partial extinctions resulting from their imperialistic and economic-driven migrations into alien spheres of the earth.
