Michael Goodine reviewed Little Book of Big History by Ian Crofton
Review of 'Little Book of Big History' on 'GoodReads'
4 stars
The authors achieve their goal of describing important events from the big bang to the modern era in bite-sized chunks. The language used, though, is at a high school level, which makes it a rather dull read. That comes as a surprise, given the fact that the book's catchy title invokes the humor of Douglas Adams.
