Ryan Petersen @Juanfrayala Yes, The Discoverers. Probably my favorite history book. Takes a while to develop bc it’s the full history of mankind’s quest for knowledge, so the geography section isn’t til about 100 pages in but worth it! (Source)
Thomas Hellmann It is the book that I often recommend to students who come to me with a true curiosity. (Source)
