They support each other, but most of all, they support each others’ heads from rolling over. (submitted by Michelle) Source: AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com | 27 Apr 2010 | 9:25 am Today Marks the End of History BooksWe’ve said it for years: “history books have been ruining history.”Too many words to read… too many facts to remember… too many dictators to hate. How can a reader be expected to comprehend so many sentences and paragraphs, dates and events, names and context at once? Answer: they can’t. But we come not to curse the darkness, but to light a glorious candle: a new history book so accurate it makes Wikipedia look like the National Enquirer… so concise, it makes a sneeze feel like an eon… and yet, so unabridged that it makes the Library of Congress a virtual haiku. Historical Tweets: The Completely Unabridged and Ridiculously Brief History of The World hits shelves today, giving you all the history you need with just 1% of the words. Skimmers of the world: rejoice.
A side note: special thanks to everyone who made this book possible — Kate McKean, Ryan Doherty and our team at Villard/Random House, the Historical Tweets fans & followers — and our loved friends and families. If you haven’t already gotten the book, go get it — you’ll really enjoy the design, the humor, and the history. And if when you get it, leave us a comment below — we’d love to hear what you think. Perhaps even leave a review on Amazon or Barnes & Noble. And if you’re reading the book close to an historical monument or statue — take a photo with the book and send it in. We’ll post it here on the blog. Be historic, – Twitterstorians Alan Beard & Alec McNayr
