A Comic History of the Modern World tells modern history in a witty and humorous way. It is essentially a complete and up-to-date college course on modern world history, but presented in graphic novel form. In an engaging and humorous graphic style, Larry Gornick tells the history, people, and major topics that have shaped our universe over the past five centuries, including the Industrial Revolution, the American Revolution, the Russian Revolution, the evolution of political, social, economic, and scientific thought, Communism, Fascism, Nazism, the Cold War, globalization, and more.
The first volume of the Modern World Comic History is an excerpt from Gonick’s award-winning Comic History of the Universe series. The series begins with the Big Bang and ends with Christopher Columbus’s voyage to the New World. This book begins with the nations “discovered” by Columbus and ends with the American Revolution.
