Customer Reviews
necessary to own this series.
i read once that these volumes were a must in your library and i agree entirely. Will Durant to me is some sort of genius who is preaching to us the truth about our ancestors and past civilizations. this book is highly recommended but i advise to take your time and not be overwhelmed as the writing includes lots of information in every single page you read. all i can say is, i wish i could thank this man for this genuinely artistic form of being able to explain something so difficult and diverse to mankind.
The Story of Civilization, eleven volumes
These wonderful eleven volumes of The Story of Civilization by Will Durant will change your life. It is a delightful and never-to-be-finished read as Durant shows you the history of our world as an unrivaled master story teller. Have fun.
