I'll get my history of the world from Mel Brooks, thank you very much..
I read some of the Amazon reviews and although I do not own this book and have not read it, several reviewers said it is politically correct to the max.. it discounts Western Civilization, that Europe contributed nothing for nearly a thousand years during the Dark Ages. Also the history of Israel and the Jewish people is unrecognized in comparison with the writing about Islam. I will pass and stick with my 40 year old Encyclopaedia Britannica.
Is this Graham Hancock approved?

Bought the last DK book and haven't read it yet. I hope it's history and not propaganda. Had some credits to burn.
