I almost finished this #bookspin, a runner up for the Canadian NF award last year, but couldn‘t get through it. It‘s a good overview of Western history, but should be more global: Asia (except the Mongols and Vietnam war) are left out, as are sub-Saharan Africa, Australia, and South America. It‘s also very military. Mosquitoes and diseases were at first an interesting historical lens that I got tired of.
