What is the best World History book to read for pleasure and education? (Not biased please)?

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009
Scotty S asked:


Like many people, I wasn’t really that interested in World History when I learned it the first time. I learned it because i HAD to. Now, I want to re-learn it because I want to.

Are there any suggestions for World History books that will not only educate…but maybe be a bit “pleasurable.” I’m not looking for anything really opinionated either.

Thanks in advance.

What other kind of careers can you have with the study of World War 2 History beside Teaching it?

Sunday, April 5th, 2009
shelman23 asked:


I love History but don’t want to really teach it, I would also love to find some sort of group that discusses World War 2 History So I can listen and learn and argue with others who find that whole period of World History as fascinating. (Terrible run-on sentence I know!) I would like a website or a chat room or something. I also live in Sacramento, CA and would be willing to travel an hour or so to meet people interested in this. And please no smart-a** answers please. I have been to college, and it just doesn’t cut it.

My knowledge of world history needs work, where to start?

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009
jay s asked:


At my last job, my co-worker had a broad knowledge of world history and facts. Discussions on various topics was normal while going through a day of work.

I am ashamed to admit, but about 80% of the things he would discuss (World Wars, the history of particular places and people, general knowledge etc..) I couldn’t even include myself in a discussion, purely because I didn’t know any sort of facts.

In high school (A long time ago; I’m 27 now) I only had one class regarding history, which was “Australian Studies” (I’m from Australia). My co-worker often asked me why I didn’t study world history at all.

I know it’s a broad topic, but where would you start if you were keen learn and read about history? Your own country? Another country? Religion and history?
